It's in a space where there's no room for a full sized tree. It regrows vigorously. It keeps it shrubby and looks great next planted alongside some gold-leafed hypericum calcycinum Brigadoon at it's base (pictured). So if your tree's current form is discombobulated you can chop away to your heart's content next late winter and give it another chance to shape up and fly right. |
