While all the folk with gardening know how are being helpful. I have another quick question we have this magnolia tree in the lawn and are thinking of removing the branch that is (badly) circled. As it gets in the way and will hopefully encourage it to grow up a bit more, is this a terribly silly idea?
Edit please don't judge me for all of the child detritus cluttering up the lawn.
Under advice from our gardener we are doing exactly this. Smaller branches removed from the base to encourage the larger stems to grow up and not out. Then allow it to grow out at the top when we get the desired shape.
