Conifer needle problem
Hello. I live Cedar Falls and have a question about one of my conifer trees. I have noticed this spring that some of the needles are turning brown. The problem seems to be on the lower half of the tree. I am attaching some photos of this issue. Thanks in advance!

Pruning lilacs
We have a row of lilac bushes with foliage and blooms 6 feet or higher between our house and our neighbors. The lower stems and branches below are bare. Can we severely prune the bushes back to the bare branches to control the bushes size and try to encourage growth on the lower branches? Or will it harm or kil the lilacs?
