Pruning: Prune off any undesirable branches. Trim ends of branches to keep them off of the ground.  Remove promptly any shoots that form below the graft point.

Why they cost so much:  These trees are produced by top grafting which in its self is a time consuming activity.  They are then grown for a period of 1-4 years before being marketed.
