Default [IBC] Buttonwood

And unrestrained top growth will help build a root system
that has been damaged.

-------------------------

This may be the first time I have seen this statement
relating to unrestrained top growth, or it may be I never
really let it sink in before.
I know I am overly conscious when pruning of bringing that
growing apex down to size. Now I wonder if I have missed
chances to improve root growth a few times when that was hoped
for.
I'd like to know about this. Does it apply in only this
situation with the Buttonwood or other trees, too?
