Keep in mind conifers don't regrow from the centre in any way, so if it's a very wide conifer and you take the top off it will have that donut appearance until the lower lateral branches turn up due to geotropism and eventually meet at the top again, this can take years and be a real pain when you come to work on the conifer again and realise there's no anchor point in the mass of dirty greenery.

Cut it down, conifers are the devils plants, dirty scratchy bastard things.....

The outdoors is my indoors, it's where I find my greatest comfort.

The combination of last sentence and signature did make I laugh.
