Can I use this to prune my palm tree fronds?

I am not sure what fronds are but the saw worked great on my white burch tree when I trimmed the tree.

I would think this would be more aggressive than you would want for trimming palm fronds. I would use a reciprocating saw with a pruning blade in it for that.

Yes, that was one of the reasons I bought it. Great for pruning down ones you do not want anymore and getting them in an organized pattern.

I feel sure it will. I used it on St. Augustine that has a much bigger blade, etc. Just getting me some Zoysia started. There is a web site that sells Zoysia and they advertise this tool for Zoysia on their web site. I LOVE mine and it makes the job so easy.

Hello, Gee sorry I do not have direct knowledge of Bismarck palms. Sounds great tho ! I have used it on my hibiscus and New Zealand castor bean plants. I really like the results. Caution follow directions. I was too enthusiastic with hibiscus. Doing well now. :) best of luck!

I used this product in Oklahoma so I cant speak to its use on Palm Tree Sprouts specifically, but I used it on an overgrown well pad with 6 foot tall noxious weeds and 5 foot tall switch grass and this product killed it all within a couple of days. Its like super concentrated round up with twice the effective ingredient. I think it would take care of Palm Tree Sprouts. Just make sure the stalk and leaves are coated. Cheers,

I used it to chop down an apple tree, so a coconut (or durian) should be no problem. Just beware the sharpness, and be sure to stabilize the coconut so that it doesn't roll.

i am using them to cut small palm leaves at the base of the palm about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thickness. they work well at that.

It's quite small, with a very small blade. I would use something with a longer blade for pruning rose bushes.

YES. I've used mine that way just recently. Great pole saw. AND LONG ! I use it for my Palm trees which are quite high.I must add.....after reading other answers, that you will NOT have much leverage, because all you will have is thetop silver part. BUT, I made out fine. It's Not in place of a "Pruning Saw".

I don't know why you wouldn't. I use on palms in the ground and large pots that are indoors.

For sure...I use it on my palm trees, which look like much bigger stalks than the summer sweet bush.The blade is only 5 or 6 inches so it's not a sweeping hedge trimmer, rather an individual branch trimmer. Good luck.

Hello Susan,I would not recommend this tool for that type of tree. That tree is more of a hedge than a typical tree with large limbs. There is also a correct way to prune this type of tree and you should follow that procedure in order to continue to enjoy the beauty and benefits of the tree. I included a website underneath for you. I hope this helps.http://extension.unh.edu/resources/files/Resource000594_Rep616.pdfregardsfrank

Susan, I also would say no. It is more for limbs hortizontally or close to it. You may try and use a long handled pruner model just as long. It will shear off the top as long as it is not over 1" diameter trunk. Mike

I don't know. I wouldn't think so, just because it has a very pungent scent, but i guess it would depend on what your cutting. If using with another citrus oil, it would probably work.

You should be able to. Be sure to double check the arbor size on the blade to make sure you have the proper one.

I wouldn't attempt to use it for that application. Worked well on the small diameter tree limbs it was designed for. The blades did wear quickly but I put it through the ringer.

I don't see why not. You will need to do small amounts at a time. The ulu is great for chopping herbs, too.
