Hi
I planted a Stella Cherry tree last year. It was supposed to be miniature root stock but it grew really tall so I cut it back quite hard in the spring and now is looks weird. It has a set of branches at approx 1.5m from the ground and then a few feet of bare trunk and then another set of branches higher up. I am tempted to chop off the whole of the top of the tree above the first set of branches but thought I would ask for guidance first, Can any one help? :)
Thank you
Susan

What is the odd dark green slime that grows on the bark? Since it turned up a few years ago the fruit withers before it ripens. I wanna kill it, any ideas? (the tree is about 15 yrs and used to produce amazing tasty cherries)
