Hoop pine to cut or not ot cut

tracie · 11th May 2010, 09:00 PM

Hi I am new to this site and already find it very informative....Thankyou. My question relates to a hoop pine tree that is about 25m tall, the very top of the tree is growing in two, I am told as a result of cockatoos eating out the new shoots at the top. Should we take out one or leave it alone? We have had differing opinions on this, your input would be gratefully recieved.
I live in S.E. Qld
