C-2 This illustration shows the incorrect method of making a cut in one operation,frequently causing the splitting down of the branch. Note also the attempt toheal an incorrect cut, which was not made sufficiently close to the trunk. Thebark on such cuts dies back to the trunk and the new healing bark cannot growover the wound.D-i to d s Shows correct and incorrect methods of shearing or pruning hedges. D-l to D-3 Shows the correct method known as the ovoid cross section (D-i); the truncatedcross section (D-2); and the rectangular cross section (D-3). As a result of eachof these methods of pruning the hedge produces a solid foliage effect at its base. |
