A lot of pines went through the roofs in Katrina. This one survived in remarkably good shape, only a few broken limbs. But, a very large pecan just on the other side of the house was blown down at the roots, fortunately falling away from the house. If this pine had fallen in the same direction as the pecan, it would destroy the house.
The owners (freinds of mine) are concerned that any storm next year could bring down this pine. They have no insurance, and very limited resources. My freind has been quite sick for some time and is limited in how much work he can do.
What do you think? Should I take it down? If not, what would you suggest on pruning?
