Should I cut down a leaning tree?
Trees that have grown with a lean are generally pretty safe. If the lean has developed seemingly overnight, this can be cause for concern as the tree may be dangerous and need removal. As a tree grows, sometimes there is not enough light directly above so the tree will grow towards the light developing a lean.
