What is Pollarding?

Pollarding is the practice of removing a tree’s upper branches while keeping the main trunk and framework intact. This encourages fresh, healthy growth and creates a more compact canopy. It’s commonly used on species such as willows, poplars, planes, and limes, particularly in areas where trees might otherwise outgrow their space.

Benefits of Pollarding:

Keeps trees at a safe and manageable size

Reduces the risk of large branches breaking in storms

Encourages strong, healthy new growth

Extends the life of the tree

Helps maintain light levels in gardens, streets, and parks

Prevents interference with buildings, roads, and power lines
