I posted about this about two years. I guess I wasn’t ready then (or just got lazy?) but now I am!
I have this holly tree(?) on the corner of my house that is totally not manageable by me. So, I want to reduce its size. It’s been with the house since way before I bought it, so it is established.
I basically want to reduce emits height by at least half. I have pictures of the outside and from underneath. So, if I just chop the top half off, I would think I need to shape it and pick some smaller branches to also trim. But which ones?
Your advice is welcome!!
Also, on picture 4 you can see a grid pattern of sorts. What is that? Is that from a woodpecker?
