Guide To Crowded Tree Crowns
An overgrown and overly dense tree crown can pose a lot of problems to the health of your tree.
Issues and Dangers
Poor air circulation can destroy your tree's health. When air can't circulate easily due to crown density, it's also likely that little light is reaching the inner branches. Leaf molds, mildew, and bacterial problems often become severe because of the density of branches and foliage. Insect pests can also travel throughout the crown more easily in crowded conditions.
