I would cut all the lower leaves off right at the trunk, there are new ones coming through from the top every year, but none of these leaves look good with a trim! they need to be whole or not there at all. If you cut off all the brown leaves altogether, I'm sure you'll be left with enough good ones at the top, and it looks more elegant with clear trunk .
