New members Monkey Puzzle


Unstumpable

Hi All

 

am a new member looking for a little advice on a monkey puzzle at the front of a large country house where I have been working recently. The tree has a great shape which has been spoilt by somebody in the past allowing an additional stem to grow alongside. The minor stem is 8" whilst the main trunk is in excess of 20". My initial thoughts are to cut off the minor stem at base level at an angle to allow water to drain. The tree is a major feature of the house and I don't think I would be invited back if any work I did impacted upon its health. Any thoughts and advice would be greatly appreciated. Hopefully the attached image works.

 

Andrew
