You might've found several trees with an odd look as you walked the streets and parks of Dublin during the winter. The branches that are declining are very dense and typically have a peculiar bulbous finish, with several thin branches that are like twigs that extend vertically. This tree cutting technique is called pollarding.

Tree Pollarding may be a crop maintenance strategy, exactly where a young tree's primary stem is cut to facilitate regrowth. The regeneration which happens then can often be removed (re-pollarding) back to exactly the same point (pollard head).

Pollarding a tree requires an professional tree company properly. Dublin has plenty, just like us. When you decide on Goodfellers to pollute your trees, our specialist tree surgeons will give you a individual, pleasant and efficient service. For our successful and clean operating strategies, we are completely insured and listed. After tree pollarding, the tree needs to be recycled at intervals of 3-5 years.
