Best Answer

depends on the tree. some trees like olives will grow suckers all their lives while most will stop when the tree is big enough to shade the trunk. pruning can help shape the tree to bear more fruit which will sap the suckers strengh but until then you simply need to cut them as low as possible.

is this a home garden tree or a farm?
