I have a Velvet Cloak Smoke Tree (I think - it's purple, definitely ). After some initial problems - half the tree died the first year - it's been growing beautifully. So much so that I took the advice in one of the forums here and cut the top back ten feet which resulted in much fuller foliage. Some of the branches are now blocking the sidewalk for anyone over four feet tall - I want to trim them but I'm not sure whether to do it now, wait until fall or winter?
Thanks for any advice!
