Acer Woes
I ahve a Japanese maple (Acer Palmatum of some sort - I
think!), about 20 years old, 2' 6" high and about 7' across in
one direction, and cut bak to about 4' in the other.
I fell backwards of a step and crash landed on it! It certainly
saved me from potentially serious injury, hitting head on wall
or falling backwards over it, BUT it has suffered somewhat in
the 3 of its 6 main branches have been sheared off at the
trunk. It needed a bit of pruning , but not this severe, and
not from this side!
Should I just leave it alone this year and see what happens, or
can I continue my planned pruning?
