Hey team,
I have these three trees (I think they are a Photina Robusta of some sort feel free to correct me). Anyways when we moved in the tree was completely covered and wrapped with running wisteria.
As you can see in the photos there is a shitton of it still there but I've cut it all out from the tree, I'm going to try to poison and dig up as much of that wisteria as possible as it's literally wrapping around every tree, fence, anything it can.
I am not tied to these trees but any means, although they do provide some nice privacy but based on the wisteria situation shown. What's the best course of action here?
Hard pruned the treats, cut and kill the wisteria or and I better off ripping it all up, removing the Wisteria and replanting?
Cheers

Frankly you will have a hard time killing the photinia anyway. I guess the real answer will be how much you enjoy curating your garden space and work.
If you only want a screen then you already have one and removing it would be silly. But if you want a nice space you love then get in there, tear it all out and plant something way, way nicer. Making it your own is fun and none of these plants are precious or worth saving.
If you must, sort out the wisteria, not the trees.
