  • September 2020 update. Yesterday I did the stage 2 prune - pulling and tying every branch down to around a right-angle to the trunk. Scary stuff! I'll upload the video soon. I learnt a few important lessons I'd like to share. Do subscribe and click the notification bell if you want to be told when it goes live. Best wishes, Tony.

    Wow!! Very interesting!! You’ve very artistic eyes and skillful hands!! Great job!! Now, you gave me ideas to try to do that one day when some of my trees grow up!!
    May I ask you what grow zone are you in and what time of the year is the best to do this? What tree do you have there and any suggestions on what trees will tolerate pruning/trimming like that? Tks for sharing!! 👍😃

      Many thanks! The main tool was just a set of cheap 'sheep shearer' clippers, but I also used the Bosch mini hedge trimmer: www.argos.co.uk/product/1457834. However, I wouldn't recommend the Bosch as the angle of the blade is all wrong and it makes your wrist ache.. Hope you enjoy doing your own! Best wishes, Tony.

    • @TonyDavisSaxophone
      @TonyDavisSaxophone  Před 4 lety +1

      Sorry Donna, I only know it's a type of cypress tree, but don't know which one. I've pruned it three times now and stick with the timings for my box hedging, which is spring and late summer. The last pruning made them look great as I stripped the branches from just behind the pompom right back to the trunk. This has given them real definition and moved them more towards 'cloud' and away from 'pom pom'. Best of luck with your own tree!

      Hi Jenny. They're just cheap 'sheep sheers' that you can pick up in any garden centre. I wouldn't recommend the electric ones I'm using. The handle is at a really odd angle and causes a lot of wrist pain. Hope your own project goes well!

      Many thanks, Ivan. I have shown the main cutting in normal speed at various points, but clearly didn't want to use real-time throughout. However, did you know you could slow the video down using CZcams's settings? Simply click on the cog in the bottom-right of the video screen, select Playback Speed, and then choose the speed you'd like. You may also wish to watch stage two, which again has some close-ups of the cutting and knots: czcams.com/video/1hUMeIxBq3Y/video.html
