TREE POLLARDING

Tree pollarding

Tree pollarding is a method of pruning which keeps a tree smaller than it would naturally grow. Once a tree reaches the maximum growth that you want, annual pollarding will keep that tree at a certain height. Unless carried out by a tree surgeon however, you risk damage to your tree. Atkinson Tree Surgery of Milton Keynes are experts at tree pollarding along with the similar crowning and thinning.

In addition to restricting the height of a particular tree, pollarding will also promote a dense head of foliage and branches. The removal of the upper branches of a tree, essentially what pollarding is, will encourage a spurt of new growth.
