Natural Pruning

« Back to Glossary Index

It is the natural death and/or fall of the branches of living trees, due to causes such as: lack of light, rotting, excess humidity, etc. Normally, the natural fall occurs from the bottom upwards, from the branches of a tree in formation, resulting from the density of the massif and consequent shading (as a tree grows, the lower branches, dominated by those that develop higher, atrophy- if and die, eventually detaching from the trunk).
