New house, monster leylandii
Hello,
Appologies if this is an all too familiar query, but I couldn't find an FAQ for the group... I moved into a new house just before christmas, and at the bottom of the garden is a 30ft leylandii. I've no problem with the tree itself (I quite like it actually - it's a nice counter-point to a *massive* leylandii hedge which shelters my house from a railway line), but it's so big that I'm worried that if I don't deal with it now, it'll be too big for me to manage in 6 - 12 months (and I'd hate to have to pay someone to do it if I can do it now myself). I want to cut it to about half of its current height, and then maintain it at that height - my questions a is it likely to survive, is there a better course of action, is there a particular reason why doing so is a bad idea? Thanks in advance, Matt |
