The Magnolia and Fig are getting too large to fulfil light levels indoors, restricting views of the sky and showing too much shade now. Pruning overall extension growth will cause vigorous regrowth and deepen the problem. The garden has a delicate sophisticated natural plant architecture feel. The pruning needs to be aligned to this successful visual. T1 - Magnolia Front Garden: Thin canopy by 10% to increase dappled light. Lift canopy targeting subbranches for a natural look. Reduce back selected laterals obscuring windows of house. T2 - Flowering plum: reduce height by 0.5m. T3 - Fig. Back Garden: Too dense and now taking too much light from seating and garden areas close to the house again. Thin by 10%, look to form but reduce areas where too much growth dominates.
