I removed a branch from a Sycamore, how can I stop the wound 'bleeding'?
Our Advice
This is not the ideal time to prune a Sycamore, but there is something you can do to deal with the wound. Cut a slice of a large potato and place it over the wound, the potato can be tied into place or held with a small nail. The starch in the potato will act as a coagulant to stem the flow of sap from the wound.
