Suggested work: - full crown reduction - reduce the height by 3m - reduce the lateral growth by 1-2m to balance canopy - remove deadwood Rear T3 Silver Birch x 1 (Betula pendula /alba)The 18m mature silver birch has been reduced previously, cyclical prune now due.

They have not previously been pruned. We recommend reducing them now before they grow to dominate that corner of the garden and cannot be reduced significantly without killing them. Suggested work: - reduce the height by 3.5m - reduce the lateral growth by 1.5-2m ensuring tree remains green all round
