Larch Pruning

I have just competed the winter pruning on my Larches.  I generally do this before the buds start to move, so that once the roots start pushing nutrients up the tree, it goes to the buds that I want to develop.
Building and maintaining ramification on larches is an ongoing proces and I have made a video that explains this process and also how branches are built up.
