Need help! Backbuding on a conifer
 

Hi all.

I have a nice tree ( I can't identify it, but i think its either some kind
of cypress or juniper) it's developing great, have it in a large pot to
develop a good trunk. The problem is that the first of its branches it's
placed too high. I have tried to prune the top hard to see if i could get
some buding on the old wood but there is any. Any sugestions/comments on
this? Much apreciated.

Please post a picture of the tree and the Latin name for positive identification. Then I can advise.

Cordially,

Michael Persiano
