Hamas big reduction/pruning thread!

[Danavan]

which is totaly my point, there is LESS to take away, that is down to how it is done and managed. In my reductions i find 2nd 3rd prunes an absolute breeze, nothing that couldnt be bundled up and chipped without hasving to reach for the saw, the groundy keps up easy and I can do two or three in a day, everyones a winner, including the client whos trees remain roughly the same size indefinatly!

 

I think this is a method under the name of nawki? the jap term for garden tree as opposed to bonzi, the jap word for potted tree:confused1:

 

Sorry if my jap is wrong! I had done some at the late gr8 Mr Harrisons for a most inspired arb IMO

2 days on one ewe tree prune nawaki style prune!

Won't some of those reductions end up looking like "afro" haircuts in a year or so ?

 

I prefer the trees to look pollarded for a while and then grow decent size branches.

 

I'm no expert though, I just look at trees.

Whilst at some stage these prunes may look a little furry that will only last a short time after which balanced growth applies due to shading out of epicormic and losses, leaving the tree with a more finely branching form as apossed to several long heavy limbs

 

pollards have no place in urban gardens or at least in very few instances. For reasons already discussed

[Danavan]

yeah kind of!

 

Thought that was the trend:thumbup1:

 

Great thread mate:thumbup1: has it tied in with the contrivercieal thread yet?

I think it is about the photo synth producing thing in trees?

 

Remove to much & get a load back?

 

Nature has a way of telling us lay people how she works!

 

It mite be sutle but it will always open an eye if that eye wants to see!

for the record I dont get upset when it "derails" a bit, i try not to do it to others cos it seems to bug some but at the end of the day its all talk and a conversation should follow a natural flow, not be regimental and boring!
