Got this tree last year for the beaymutiful base and nebari. Yet hate the top for its long bare branches and outside foliage where tree was just pruned to shape and have a rather empty interior. Will need to repot it out of the soil its in around late Jan early Feb.
Wondering if its ok to start pruning and removing few branches to:
-hopefully get back buds
-allow more sun to the interior branches
As tree is due for a repot and possibly heavy rootwork with the soil its in (will only half bare root or even do 2 × 1/3 of root ball yearly.
Is it ok to start working on top.and foliage or leave it till rootwork is done for the added foliage to gather more energy for the tree to recover faster from repot ?
Would unsuggest a different approach like maybe just removing few branches....
Appreciate any hints on how to style the tree to match the rough base.
As well as any tips on how to handle it to create back budding and shorter branches...
Is now OK to prune if I am.to do it or wait till early autumn?
Keep both main branches or reduce to one ?
Repot jan/feb ?
One last question on final pot size and shape abd colors ??? Guess that would be after 3-4 years after tree is out of its soil and new top developed ? Or ok to do it with first repot ? Will decrease pot size now
having to reduce a huge rootball in 3-4 years ?
Thanks
