Guy what is Frans talking about?
I did a little reading and found reference to poodle-shape, is Cambistat so powerful it eventually turns trees into the shapes of poodle's?

I believe I can see the pine in the background in this interview

I think it's cool he cares about his tree. I remember Borgnine from Airwolf, which was on when I was a kid.

I have spent more time planting trees than pruning, and one of the most prevalent mistakes I see is improper planting depth. Sometimes it can be difficult to set a 90" root ball, but it's the best time to get it right.

I'm rooting for that tree, hopefully it isn't in such bad a shape underground.

Guy what is Frans talking about?

You'll have to ask Frans. Before prescribing it, you might consider that all the pruning wounds may not seal so fast if you applied a growth regulator.

Is there a true danger of this tree falling over ? Really ?
I'd be willing to take the chance on leaving it for a few more years. I'm not even sure why ?
