Ok, question for you tree experts. I've planted lots of trees in my lifetime, and mostly I know what I'm doing. But a couple years ago, I noticed that one of my young mexican white oaks was looking very top heavy, so I started trimming a few branches on top. Well, I accidentally cut the leader branch off. I cussed and fretted for a good while. So now the poor little tree looks squatty and is growing out laterally, but doesnt seem to be growing taller. Will it ever grow a new leader branch and start growing upward, or will it just be a short, wide tree forever? #grownostr #trees #permaculture #permies #gardening
