I have a white ash that splits into two trunks just above ground level.
One trunk is 6 inches from the house and the other grows the other way. The one near the house is about 9 inches at the base while the other trunk is about 12 inches at the base.
My question is this... how will the tree respsond to having the smaller trunk removed? Will the wound rot out and kill the tree entirely?
The tree is healthy. The only issue is it's rubbing the eaves.
Any feedback is greatly appreciated. (reps are ready ;-)
