Removing pecan trees

rainvenezia

Where to start....

We recently bought a house with an acre of land and in the center is a mangled cluster of pecan trees. there are about 3 larger trees and the rest are scattered under the larger ones. there are a total of about 9 trees. I've heard its better to cut down the smaller trees to allow the larger ones to grow.

In addition, i have recently purchased a variety of 10 flowering trees. I would like to place some of these trees near the large pecan trees to replace the small pecan trees if i cut them down to add color and variety.

we would like to make this decision based on resale value for the house. (ive been told its all about landscape!)

Question: should we keep the pecan trees and place the flowering trees else where, or cut the smaller pecan tress down. If we are to cut the pecan trees, how many should we cut, and are there any suggested ways to cut them down ourselves or should we hire someone?
