Last summer I collected this maple at a school park in my neighborhood. From the looks of it, it got run over by a lawnmower?
Anyways, it had great radial roots, no rap root when I dug it up. Which is strange for trees around here. It’s got great movement, I love it. The only thing it there is a big split down the middle of it.
I’m trying to figure out my first move in the spring.
I need help on what I should do to correct it. I was thinking of letting it grow all next season and then pick the leader and cut back to that. Should I do any maintenance to the tree in the spring?
Cutting back past the split is also an option.
If I left it to grow would the split effect the tree overtime?
Any help would be awesome.
