tree ID please

ice

Sorry for keep asking for ID but want to know what these trees are at the bottom of the garden. They are either side of a elderly apple tree which has mistletoe over it.

 

Any ideas what they are and how to care for all three?

No idea, but hopefully someone can help you.

I'd say apple and a bit of forsythia 

(and sycamore)

It's a conifer Edd.

It's not a pine or a yew. That exhausts my conifer knowledge

Thanks, the one in the background is 3 or 4 giant leyandii belonging to neighbours.



Bit disappointed with sycamore guess it self seeded, will have to work out whether it can stay.



The fruit tree has a mangled top, anything I can do to help it?



Any tips for the mistletoe apple?

I'd get rid of the sycamore - it'll soon shade everything else out and stop you growing anything near it and it'll seed everywhere and you'll be living in a forest!

It's not as if you're short of trees, and even if you were, there are hundreds of trees I'd plant before choosing a sycamore

I'd see how the fruit tree (probably an apple) does this year before deciding what to do with it - it may need a bit of pruning but I can't really see the shape from the photo.

As for the mistletoe apple - it sounds as if it's happy the way it is

Agree with Dove re the Sycamore, loads of them here though my main problem, as it overhangs my very small garden, is the equally prolific Ash
