to prune u should cut the top part of the tree where it is red, youdo this because bottom part is green because the top is overshadowing the bottom .now this may sound and look like you ruined the plant, but pruning it makes a better structure for the plant and helps it reach its full potential.Raising a tree is like building a house, it needs to have a good foundation.
