受付前のクロマツの剪定

受付前にあるクロマツの剪定を行いました。
松葉の葉むしりは指先の感覚を頼りにおこないます。樹冠部分に行くにつれて横枝がたくさん出ていますが、丈夫そうな枝を選び、バランスを取りながら作業を行っていきます。樹への負担を減らすため、一度足を掛けた場所で手の届く範囲の葉むしりを素早く行い、次に体勢を整えた場所でまた作業を繰り返します。

横枝が複雑に交差するような部分は困難な体勢を維持しながら葉むしりをすることもあり、柔軟さも必要になります。この一連の流れを樹冠部から下方へ進めていきます。

Pruning the Black Pine by Murin-an’s Reception Window
We pruned the black pine (kuromatsu) in front of our reception window. Gardeners pluck pine needles by relying on the sensations in their fingertips. As they approach the tree’s canopy, there are many side shoots coming out of it, so they strike a balance by choosing the healthy-looking branches. To reduce the burden on the tree, they quickly pluck the needles that they can reach with their hands while keeping their feet on the ground and then repeat the work as they adjust their body positions to different places. In areas where the tree’s side shoots overlap in complex ways, they sometimes pluck needles while staying in very difficult positions. They continue this process as they move downward from the tree’s canopy.
