: I live in San Diego with a Sago Palm
: that is about 8 feet tall and at
: least 15 years old. This tree is in
: full sunlight. It leans over at
: almost a 45 degree angle. I have
: trid to prop it up with a 2x4 to
: prevent toppling. Is there a way to
: straighten this tree? Thx.

You can't bend it if that is what you mean. If it is striaght, but at an angle, you would want to dig around it and just straighten it up. I know it is heavy but if you don't cut a lot of roots, it should be just fine.
