Pleached trees & how to make them

Bunny tells all about pleached trees & how to make them.

Lots of clients and people who watch the videos have been asking about pleached trees. In this video, Bunny explains what they are; what they can be used for; types of pleached tree; whether to buy them ready made, or how to make them; and how to maintain them.

Don’t forget to discuss with your neighbours first. What could be privacy for you, could be shadows and darkness for them.

Bunny also talks about pleached trees in her book “Garden Transformations” https://amzn.to/3KzsgUO

In this video Bunny uses:

Stihl HSA 56 Cordless Hedge Trimmer.
https://amzn.to/34DSVkb
It comes with a battery and charger. These are great, no more cutting through the cable, while trimming the hedges. It’s light weight and easy to use. Bunny uses it for her low box hedges and high yew hedges, although she has a small hand held one for her topiary birds.

Niwaki tripod ladder.

Bunny swears by these, and has 2 or 3 of them as result. They are a lot more stable and easy to use than a regular ladder.

Stihl HLA 85
Which has been discontinued.
A similar model is https://amzn.to/3CEEk4j this features the same adjustable head, and battery pack combo. Again it’s a lot easier to use than a petrol powered hedge cutter as it is so much lighter.

4mm black tying tube

As Bunny states in the video she uses this a lot. It’s great because it stretches as the plants/trees grow, so you are not left with the line where it has cut into the plant/tree.
