HI

I have a 20 ft gum tree that has a 30 degree lean on it. Should I be worried. If I wanted to straighten it is it possible?

Hi rlpt,
Yes you can start worring, get out the chain saw and finnish it off, before it turns into a widowmaker. Gums a very brittle and shallow roots once broken do not re grow unless you have a malee. If you have I D name for us, will help more. If in doubt cut it out.
Good luck. Peter r
