Default Encouraging Oak suckers...?


Hello,

I have to cut a modest size oak (about 6" caliper) and could
cut it at various heights.

I would like to encourage its re-growth more "bush-like"
than "tree-like."

Am I more likely to get such growth if it is cut closer to
the ground level, or leaving some of its trunk?

Thanks for any thoughts,
