Best to just rub them off rather than cutting them as the latter may
encourage new growth.

I've purchased a four foot flowering cherry tree (Prunus Royal
Burgundy) which is grafted on to 'Colt' rootstock.

The tree has coppery-bronze leaves and double-pink flowers but I see
that there's some 'green leaves' growing out from the rootstock.

Am I correct in thinking that these green leaves should be cut off
from
the 'rootstock'?
