Reduce overall height and spread by selective removal of upper limbs, and by reducing limb currently encroaching on adjacent Pear tree. Percentage of tree removed: approx 5-10%.T5: Small Pear: Photo 2605F. Remove/reduce minimum of branches to rebalance it, once encroaching Cherry has been reduced. Percentage of tree removed: minimal, approx less than 5%.T6: Cytisus battandieri: Photo 2605G: remove/shorten the lowest main branch, to remove weight from the road side: and then to reduce the overall height by shortening the indeterminate leader to a suitable union.
