Description of the Pollard Oak
The Pollard Oak is a majestic variety of oak tree that is cultivated through the practice of pollarding—a traditional pruning technique where the upper branches of a tree are periodically cut back to encourage new, vigorous growth. This method not only prolongs the tree’s lifespan but also yields timber with unique characteristics prized for various uses.
