radical acer pruning?
I have a small-leaved (green leaved) acer. It is too big at about 10+ft.
Initial plans were to completely remove it, but I wondered, suppose I
radically cut it back to just a few stumps? Will it regrow new smaller
branches or is this a waste of time? The bottom of the tree is probably
about 9 inches across and it splits after a few feet to several substantial
branches.
What I want is something about 5ft tall, lots of foliage, and many slim
branches.
