Hello,
May I please have advise and and or direction on how to prune the Jacaranda shown in the attached picture.
The tree is still very new, roughly 2 - 3 years in the ground. Soon after planting the tree the center stalk broke off leaving only the 2 side branches. These remaining branches, roughly 30 feet tall (same as palm tree in picture), have minimal secondary limbs and leaves.
Should both stalks be pruned, just 1 or none at all?
Would it be helpful to graft in additional limbs? if so, should grafts be done to both stalks in multiple locations or just one or two placed in a certain location?
I thank you in advance for any and all direction here.
