Trimming arborvitae branches to trunk
I have what I believe is a large arborvitae growing against my garage. It’s maybe about 12-13 feet tall. It’s on the west corner of my vegetable garden and it blocks several hours of sun, so I’d like to cut it somehow. Removing it all together isn’t an option, but I was considering removing all the branches from the bottom 6 or 7 feet, leaving it in a kindof deciduous shape. My hope was that this would allow a couple more hours of sunlight to the garden. But I’m afraid that cutting this much off will damage or kill the shrub. Can you tell me if this is possible? Thanks! ~Sarah

My 4 year old, 4' tall and wide lemony lace elderberry was in perfect condition on July 18. In the last 2 weeks, whole branches of leaves are turning brown and falling off. Half the bush has been affected and the other half is starting to look bad. I thought Virticillium Wilt, but there are no black rings on the stem or streaks on the bark when peeled. There are 1/16" brown lumps along the stem - spaced out, not bunched together. Scale? Treatment? Will it kill the bush? Should it be cut back?

I hope you are the right person to ask this question to, if not, can you direct me to that person? I have creeping charlie in my grass that I want to get rid of, but I also want to spread more grass seed. So my question is whether I should plant new grass seed in September and then get the lawn sprayed with dicamba to kill the creeping charlie later in fall. Can you help? Thanks Matt
