So I've had this tree now for about 4 years and I'm just stuck as to what to do. There are 5 lateral branches each with substantial distance between them which probably isnt so much of a problem but I'm having trouble having it look right. Unfortunately the main branch is smack dab in the middle of the trunk from where I want the front to be. There is an ugly cut at the top (I didn't do it) with a couple of smaller branches. I was planing on hopefully trying to do a thread graft to get some more branches towards the top... but that all depends if I can get some long shoots off of somewhere. Now I'm just wondering if I shot lop off the top a few inches down. Id lose 2 or 3 of the branches but maybe it would promote some new shoots from the trunk. Here are a few pics.
Here is where I was thinking of making the cut... just above or below the second branch on the left.
Any ideas?
