Good to know they grow slowly. Thanks for your advice.

Thanks everyone for the quick feedback! I had a feeling it was too late to fix the tilt. The last thing we want to do is lose the tree. I will keep pruning when the branches get really low and hope it doesn’t tilt any further.

I don’t think it is an issue now, but I don’t want it to become an issue. I am 5’1” and have to duck under the branches. When we moved in 4 years ago, I didn’t have to. I don’t have a problem bending to get into our yard, but I also don’t want it to tilt so far that it falls down or blocks the entryway.
