Description

T1) cherry plum: All round reduction of mature cherry plum to contain crown size and improve shape and form, pulling it back to my previous reduction points. crown to be cleared of dead/damaged/diseased or heavily crossing branches and thinned to reduce overcrowding of the internal crown. Reduction in height by 1m from 8m - 7m, and Reduction in width by 2m 8m - 6m; T2) cherry plum: Height reduction of mature cherry plum to contain crown size and improve shape and form also clearing any dead/damaged/diseased or heavily crossing branches. Containment of height is necessary to improve the trees from as it has a poor form with lots of strong vertical growth due to response from previous heavy pruning. Crown to be thinned to reduce over crowding promoting good form and a stronger branch network establishing dominant internal branching opposed to many small vertical stems. Reduction in height from by 2m from 10m-8m. Data via plota.co.uk
