Inspired by a photo of Reiner's last fall, I went out and bought a Euonymus
'compacta' (not very compact - it came balled & bagged.)

As our snow starts to melt, I am contemplating my next steps. (it's heeled
into the (frozen) garden at present.

When should I put it in a training pot? (The trunk is big enough.) When
should I start to train branches? Can I treat this like a maple and cut
everthing off the trunk? When?

Thanks,

Bart
