crown care
In short and in plain language
Crown care means cutting work in the crown of a tree.
Dead wood is taken out. Sick branches or branches that cross are removed too.
The aim is to keep the tree healthy and stable. It should also be safe for people nearby.
As a rule, as little living wood as possible is cut off.
