When should I prune my large Birch tree?
Hello I have a silver birch tree in my garden, adjacent to my house. It is getting quite tall and is getting very close to the gutter. I would like to get it trimmed down to a more reasonable size to reduce any risk of strong winds causing the tree to cause damage to my house. Is there a best suited time of the year to cut the top of the tree off? I am worried cutting it before or during winter may kill the tree, which I definitely don’t want. Any advice on this would be appreciated.
