My potted Meyers Lemon has sprouted from near the bottom - right above
the graft. It was trained to a single trunk about 3' tall, and then
there's about a foot of little branches and leaves at the top. But
suddenly, there's also 4" of growth at the bottom. (After six years,
it hasn't changed much in size. Every year I get some new growth, and
every year some old branches die back.)
Other than esthetics, is there any reason to discourage the new growth?
