Reduce the tree's height by up to 3.0m and the spread by up to 1.0m (ie to near previous) to leave it a more suitable size for the garden, (2) Smoke Bush and Fig at the bottom of the garden. Currently both standing at approximately 4.5m with a radial spread of approximately 1.5 - 2m. - Reduce all over to near previous, retaining some younger internal growths. This will be approximately 2.5 m off the Fig and 1.5 m off the Smoke Bush.
