Pruning my front yard monstrosity


Hello and good morning everyone! I posted a few pictures regarding the tree that I have in front of my rental property. The owner is saying that I have to perform maintenance on it and prune/trim it and he said, strip the tree of all of its branches down to its five knuckles And I just wanna make sure that this is correct before I kill what I assume to be a mid 50 year old tree. Any information or direction would be much appreciated, gotta respect the elders ya know.

    You have to keep pollarding it. Else remove it, because most if not all of those branches are poorly-attached. Professionals should come by your area in the winter to do this.

    I mean at this point the whole tree just needs to be removed. Otherwise yeah you’re gonna have to cut those branches off every year.

    That’s a mulberry, isn’t it? Man, I hate when people pollard these things..
