This is the horticultural version of the NFL's "You make the call." These two trees (Q. alba and P. abies) would seem to be growing too closely. While both are very healthy, the spruce is growing rapidly and starting to encroach into the oak's branches. I really don't want to do anything, but I'm afraid both may suffer a bit as they fight for dominance. Feel free to speculate on how they may look in five years.
