Need help limiting group trunks in serissa

10 years ago

My young serissa has 5 trunks. I want to remove three of them, then grow a twin trunk tree.
Should I just cut them off at their base?

Yes. If there is nebari showing I would cut as close to it as possible. But first I would have a good look at the trunks and see which ones are best to keep and which has to go. Wrap a piece of paper around each trunk 1 at a time to simulate the cut to help you choose which ones to keep. HTH

A picture would be a nice addition to the thread and might provide some specific suggestions.
