- Jan 2022Tree WorksTreesIn report
The Mature Ash that dominates the garden. This tree looks in reasonably good health. There was some dead wood throughout the canopy but this is naturally occurring. There is one lower limb that protrudes out towards the neighbouring property. I suggest to keep the tree safe and well managed a recommendation of a thorough dead wood and crown clean, along with an overall canopy reduction of 1 metre, to keep the tree aesthetically pleasing and balanced.
