Are climbing plants good or bad for trees ?
I have tall trees (30 to 50 feet) in my backyard (Maryland, not sure what type of trees) since it touches a small reseve/forest.
Many of them guests climbing plants that goes all the way to the top. Tree’s diameter are about 14 inches and the climbing plants base are 1 to 2 inches.
I was entretaining the idea of taking the climbing planst off by cutting them at the base and waiting for them to dry to help the trees, but not sure if I would be doing good or bad.
Any suggestions ?
Virgina Creeper, honeysuckle, grape vines and ivies, as well as Kudzu and other heavy vines put an undue strain on a tree with their weight alone, and sometimes they twine around the branches so tightly that it literally chokes the life out of them. They also shade the sun out. A tree heavy with vines is not a tree that is going to survive for long, and the vines should definitely be cut and just allowed to dry and fall, if you cannot easily pull them down. Sometimes pulling on them causes more damage to the tree than the vines have already.
You can also get a bottle of brush killer, and paint it on straight on the newly cut vines, with a small paintbrush, to kill them out to the roots so they don’t come back. You can get Brush and Stump KIller at your local nursery. Be sure not to get it on anything you do not want to kill, because it is a plant killer.
