I have a birch tree near my house that appears to have a co-dominant stem and I was recommended to remove it to prevent it from breaking off during a storm and hitting my garage. Originally we were just going to get it trimmed back to not overhang the house. I'm worried though that removing that large of a percentage of the tree could kill off the rest of it. Has anyone had any experience with pruning a co-dominant stem of this size?
