My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Shaping Acer Griseum

8 years ago

Hi All,


I've got a 3 year old Acer Griseum that I want to prune to the shape shown in the links below.


I'm not really too sure on the technique to use to achieve this so wondered if anyone could advise me?


Thanks,


Colin Jack
