The Lime trees on the rear boundary of our client’s garden in Wimbledon had become too tall and were imposing on the available light and space. Our team of London tree surgeons were able to significantly decrease the size whilst retaining suitable growth points which will limit the tree’s reaction to being pruned as incorrect pruning can result in rampant and unsightly regrowth.
About Tree Pollarding
Pollarding is a pruning system where the upper branches of a tree are removed, promoting a dense head of foliage and branches. It has been common in Europe since medieval times and is practised today in urban areas worldwide including in London, primarily to maintain trees at a predetermined height.
