Hi,
Last year I had to cut down our Red Bud tree that was sick and dying. Several shoots grew out of the trunk. Folks here at the site gave me advice on how to grow a new tree from one of the shoots - thank you again!

The shoot I chose did very well over winter, and grew A LOT over spring and summer turning into a little tree.

I believe it needs trimming. I need advice please on how to do it: what's the best time, how much should I trim, etc.

I've attached a few pictures.

Thank you very much,
Sasha
