[QUOTE="Guy Meilleur, post: 146094, member: 2414"] How much access do you need? Best to stand back and consider reshaping the whole tree before removing major limbs. By cutting them to upright laterals, you make smaller wounds that will seal over and still gain access underneath. Light reduction of limbs above the lower ones can allow them to get enough sun and room to grow on. If the access is needed for lawn mowing, consider a lower maintenance groundcover under your tree.
