Pollarding in Dollar
Cutting a tree back hard to a framework of trunk and main branches to control its long-term size.
Pollarding in Dollar
Dollar customers looking for pollarding turn to Treescapes Scotland. Pollarding cuts a tree back to a framework of trunk and main branches, then keeps it at that size with repeat cuts every few years — a traditional method for controlling large species like willow, lime and sycamore in gardens or along boundaries where full size isn't practical. It's a bigger commitment than a one-off prune, since a pollarded tree needs the cycle repeating to stay healthy and in shape. Contact us for a free quote. Home to Dollar Glen and the Ochils behind it, Dollar has larger, tree-filled gardens around its older villas — crown work and dead-wooding are common given how many mature specimens sit close to the houses here.
