Hi everybody- could use some advice ... So I've got this pine tree next to a garden pond in my yard. Just moved into the house and trying to keep everything thriving and green. Not sure exactly on the care of the tree- looks like someone did some pruning of limbs without treating the cuts- and there's a "decorative" but I'm thinking likely very invasive vine growing on it as well from the base. I removed much of the vine from the trunk as it was beginning to spread into the canopy- the vines really had a hold on the trunk, very difficult to remove as it had a thousand little "roots" that were really well attached. I'm hoping that removing the vine will help it spring back to life- if that was the case...
Anyway my question is- what can I do to bring this tree back to full health? And what kind is it exactly?
Also the vine- do I need to make sure it stays off the tree? It looks nice along the edge of the pond but I don't want it to effect my trees health- and if it needs to be eradicated what should I do?
Here's a few photos. A couple of the tree- partially in process of removing the vine, after removing, and the vine.
