Where a tree's crown has become very dense, thinning can improve light penetration and airflow without significantly changing its overall size.
Benefits of thinning a dense canopy
- Better light reaching the garden below
- Improved airflow, which can reduce disease risk
- Reduced wind resistance across the whole crown
It's a subtler technique than reduction, well suited to a tree that's simply overcrowded rather than oversized.
