Proposal

T1 - Multi Stemmed Lime Tree. - - Reduce crown size and take 2 of the 7 stems out completely. The stems have been reduced in the past, so we would like to reduce to previous points which is an approximate 30% or 6m of the approx 16m stems. - Remove the 2 most mature stems which is in keeping with how it has been managed in the past and will allow better growth of the weaker stems. - Crown lift to 4m to allow safe passage underneath and increase light. T2 - Walnut. Crown is healthy with a few longer limbs over the greenhouse. Would like to reduce these 2 limbs back by 3m to bring into shape and protect the greenhouse.
