Pruning bayberry Morella pensylvanica
Can anyone tell me how to prune this? Every time I make a cut above a bud, I get multiple growth shoots. I've tried shearing the older stems low to the ground & still get these multiple shoots. These are 13 years old and 7 feet high, bare on the inside and bottom. HELP!!!!!!!
