My 'LaCrescent' plum is shaping itself into a beautiful, small, open-center
tree, but my 'Toka' plum is growing very large and imitating a bradford pear,
with oodles of vertical branches. Wondering what to do about it, it occurred
to me that I could cut out the central leader, and then most of what was left
would be the approximate size and shape of my 'LaCrescent', with an open
center. Would that be a good idea? This would be very major surgery. They're
only a few years old, and although they flowered last year, haven't fruited
yet.
