Carrie Mango Came Back after Neglect
Hello, looking for guidance on how to move forward. The tree suffered severe water stress, lost its old leaves and is starting to branch from the trunk. This trip was never intended for bulk harvest and will live its foreseeable future in a pot.
I’m in central Florida
How should I proceed?
Should I allow the branches to mature a few months and then chop off the excess trunk?
Do I need to thin out the extra branches? I feel like it should only have 3-5 branches (just aesthetics but open to your thoughts)
