Pollarding (tree pruning) – an uncommon and precision tree lopping & tree removal Mackenzie approach
First understand what this practice is as there are many types of bad tree pruning called pollarding (tree pruning), which is simply not the instance, they are topping or tree lopping and covered later.
Additionally it is necessary you understand the species that it applies as well, not all trees can take it. Typically the species are deciduous (drop leaves for winter season) and due to the fact that pollarding (tree pruning) removes all growth it’s excellent to have a species that a minimum of has actually become accustomed to being defoliated or the tree lopping. These deciduous trees save energy for the spring ruptured of leaves and fires so they are much better able to recuperate from a 100% trim. A few of the appropriate species are willow, lime, ash, field maple, holly, hornbeam, oak, plane and beech. See something acquainted? You don’t grow those up here! We remain in a subtropical setting not temperate.
Pollarding (tree pruning) is likewise started on young trees, it’s not what you do to a fully grown tree. It’s a typical practice to commence pollarding (tree pruning) at stem sizes 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 reduced simply outside them. New stems grow from the pollard head. The trees need to have this duplicated annually or 2. The original reason for this pruning was to keep a regular supply of timber and fodder every year from the exact same trees and to likewise include the size and form of trees. Correctly done to the ideal species doesn’t seem to reduce the life-span providing it commenced at a very early age.
The pollard heads are very difficult (woundwood) and likewise filled with energy as a storage point simply near the injury for support and to supply brand-new growth. Decay rarely advances much past the pollard head.

Some people try to exercise this on their Crepe Myrtles however they don’t have the technique right nor do they usually start it on a young sampling. My advice is keep clear of it and leave it to a specialist
