The following pic shows a weeping bald cypress I planted a couple of years ago and the volunteer oak growing right next to it. One's gotta go.

I'm leaning toward axing the oak, as I have others, but this is a prime planting spot for future shade and I love the fact the oak sprang up on it's own. I don't have any other weeping cypress and it was spendy to acquire and will be a nice specimen item.

What would you do?
