Hi guys
I just found a nice prunus in my nursery but it is quite tall,
I would like to cut it short, when is the right time to do so ?

Also
There are shoots coming from the bottom
Should I keep them so they will thicken the trunk?

Thanks

Should be in the guidelines - under Tree Species.

Can't see the base of the trunk, but it is probably grafted. The shoots are another species. So, no, you do not want to keep them.
