Hello all
Recently moved into this house and I'm pretty sure this is a Nanking Cherry Shrub.
The previous owner passed so I can't be sure it is Nanking, but it does grow red berries in the summer (forgot to get pics of berries of course) and two ID apps have said with 80% certainty that it is NC.
We obtained some pictures from the neighbor that show the bush was around 15ish years ago, so it's very well established.
it's currently 8-9 feet tall.
Anyone here who can help me figure out how much I should prune?
I want to prune it back… like way back.
I was hoping to cut it to the ground about 2-3 feet high to let it grow back more full as there's lots of dead branches in the center. Will that harm it?
Any help would be so appreciated.
Thank you!
