aberdeen   10 #1 Posted October 12, 2012 (edited) Could someone please advise me as what this tree might be. Initally thought it may be an Elder, but not so sure now.    We moved here recently and are trying to indentify what is currently growing.  It has a large branch which collapsed yesterday, I have tied it back but not hopeful.  Not sure how to prune as it is a huge twisty branch and don't want to damage the tree. It is pretty high and don't think it has been pruned for some time.  Mant thanks Edited October 12, 2012 by aberdeen added photo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Womerry2 Â Â 10 #2 Posted October 12, 2012 Your picture shows a grape vine. Is that what you meant? If so, you can prune it hard back to a main stem IN WINTER only, otherwise it will bleed lots of sap and catch all kinds of fungi.
