This seems somewhat self-explanatory but I guess some folks don’t know what to look for. That varitey you showed was a good example because of the stricking difference betwee the two. Great video Mike. I am always envious of your maples
I have a grafted tree in my yard that keeps getting big suckers from the bottom of the tree. The more I trim them off the thicker they come back. Anyway to get rid of these permanently?
Chris, you have to cut them all the way back to the stem of the tree, then remove any new growth as soon as it appears in the bud stage. Most people don’t cut the suckers back far enough.
