Suggested work: - Reduce and shape by approx. 1-1.5 meters all round to suitable growth points. Rear T2 Apple x 1 (Malus) This apple tree is starting to outgrow its location and shade the garden and beds below. Suggested work: - Reduce in height by approx. 1 - 1.5 m to suitable growth points. Rear T3 Elder x 1 (Sambucus nigra) This self-set elder is shading the garden and the beds below. Suggested work: - Reduce to a new height of 1m with the aim to create a tree/bush with much smaller form in the future.

Suggested work: - Reduce and shape all round by 0.5 - 1m
