Pollarding (tree pruning) – an uncommon and accuracy tree lopping & tree removal Alderley method
First understand what this technique is as there are many forms of poor tree pruning called pollarding (tree pruning), which is just not the situation, they are topping or tree lopping and covered later.
Likewise it‘s important you understand the species that it applies too, not all trees can take it. Usually the species are deciduous (drop leaves for winter) and since pollarding (tree pruning) gets rid of all development it’s excellent to have a species that at least has become familiar with being defoliated or the tree lopping. These deciduous trees keep energy for the springtime burst of fallen leaves and shoots so they are much better able to recuperate from a 100% prune. Several of the ideal species are willow, lime, ash, area maple, holly, hornbeam, oak, plane and beech. See something acquainted? You don’t grow those up below! We remain in a subtropical environment not temperate.
Pollarding (tree pruning) is also started on young trees, it’s not what you do to a fully grown tree. It’s a typical technique to begin pollarding (tree pruning) at stem diameters of 75mm to 100mm.
Pollarding (tree pruning) is the removal of all stems back to their point of origin, the pollard head. You do not cut off any type of collars or pollard heads, you cut simply outside them. New stems grow from the pollard head. The trees need to have this duplicated every year or 2. The initial reason for this pruning was to maintain a normal supply of timber and straw yearly from the same trees and to also include the size and type of trees. Appropriately done to the ideal species does not appear to reduce the life-span offering it started at a very early age.
The pollard heads are extremely difficult (woundwood) and also filled with energy as a storage space point simply near the wound for support and to supply new development. Degeneration rarely advancements a lot past the pollard head.
You’ll see some efforts at this but I can honestly state the last time I saw an appropriate pollarded tree in real life was some 20 years earlier in Adelaide, it was a London Plane tree. Some individuals try to exercise this on their Crepe Myrtles but they don’t have the strategy right neither do they usually start it on a young specimen. My recommendations is keep clear of it and leave it to an expert
