I have a Norfolk Island Pine Tree in a lagre Pot. I live in New
England so I need to keep the tree in the house during winter. I have
had this for 30 years. My wife gave it to me when we were dating. A
lot of sentimental value. Anyway, it is getting too tall to handle .
It is about 4 ft tall. If I clip the top, will that prevent it from
getting taller? I don't want to kill the tree. Should I contact a tree
specialist?

It won't 'keep it from getting taller', it will simply make it shorter
(temporarily). It will still grow, and need occasional pruning, if you want
to keep it at 4'. I just brought mine in, for the winter. I have an 8'
ceiling, and in order to make it fit, 18" came off the top of the tree. It
looks fine, and will *be* fine.
