Hi, Ran & Ray:
I would top prune the Sliver maple with a chain saw! When I bought my house,
there was (and still is) one of these shade trees in my backyard.
I have considered digging down about 18" around the tree and putting in a
double layer of landscape cloth and back filling with good
soil/compost/manure to grow my hosta and rhodies. Too much work! So, I made
pockets using the afterforementioned process. The hosta are doing just fine!
If I didn't need the shade, it would be a chain saw!!!!!!!!!!
Hostally,
