It actually has 4 trunks coming up from a base trunk that divides into the four right above ground level. The two small trunks are barely less than an inch, the two largest are 1.25" and 1.50", however the base at ground level is between 5" and 6". None look like leads, they all go off on an angle from the base (off to all four corners pretty evenly). It was an Ann Arbor Day purchase that I just stuck it in the ground without really looking at it and I haven't paid any attention to it. I was surprised to see how tall it grew this year. This was the first year it had any flowers, and it only had a handful. No fruit formed. Should I just permanently remove it? Not going to lie, it was a purchased on a whim so I don't have any real attachment to it and it's size concerns me as it is about 6' wide now and within a foot of contacting the side of the house.
Give me land, lots of land, under starry skies above. Don't fence me in.
