Default Ice-bent trees

It depends at what angle they are leaning and how many leaders. Generally
they will correct themselves within a few days else... 40%+ degrees and you
better plan on staking and praying.

Hello!
I have a number of cypress trees (6-8') in height when are still
bowed from December's icestorm.

Is there any hope for them? Will geotropism take care of them once
the growing season starts? THey otherwise seem OK so I'm not going to
cut them down, just wondering if they'll ever straighten up.
tia,
Doug
