Not sure how to link another thread or if this works. They will pollard. The tree on the thread above i reduced by 2 to 3m all around. If you reduce and thin them hard you should be able to return in a few years and take it back further.

 

 

good to know, not having done too many in my time.

thats going chlorotic, case rested

 

Think you'll find it's more to do with the exposure, if you look at the yew next to it and the undergrowth on the second shot you'll see they're all slightly lighter and yellower also.

 

That' my story anyway and I'm sticking to it!! :001_tongue:

Not being funny but stick to what the T/O tels you to do. Theres no way in hell the tree officers round here would let us get away with taking a branch back to nodes. Youll be suprised with how much of a difference a smaller reduction will make on Q.ilex Because all the growth tends to be on the ends it is very dense. small reduction = not very dense tree,plus realisticly its better for the tree also. This is only my experiance as i dont know what your client wants/T officer. They do pollard but this surely cannot be the best remedy to what i can only assume is a perfectly healthy tree.

 

Take it steady
