What is Crown Thinning?

Crown thinning is the removal of smaller / tertiary branches, usually at the crown’s edge.

The goal is to achieve consistent foliage density and an evenly spaced branch structure. Crown thinning works well on non-coniferous trees like birch, oak, cherry, and sycamore. Crown thinning has little effect on the tree’s overall size or shape.

Crown thinning allows more light to enter through the tree, reduces wind resistance, reduces weight – but not necessarily leverage on the tree structure, and is rarely a one-time operation, especially on species known to produce a lot of epicormic growth, like lime.

Last summer, one of our tree surgery team trimmed the crown of this tree for a client in Cheadle Hulme, Stockport.
