One of my JBP is growing summer shoots from the last decandling, two months ago.
One of the apical tips has twin shoots.
Should I keep one or wait to cut both IF new buds appear low down at the same branch?

I always try to keep as many bifurbications I can get. So were it mine, I would keep both.

Yes.
What bothers me is they aren't growing apart, but together in the same direction (up). Of course I can wire them in the future but if I find a faster solution... Even if this is not a real problem.

LB is in a good mood. Friday, probably.
They are just buds, not branches...
