Vancouver island BC Canada Victoria Grand Flora Evergreen Magnolia tree 3-4 years old Tree was never dense or thick -snow broke off one large branch and all the branches are long with leaves at end - this i feel makes the tree weaker in wind and snow i want a bushy dense tree that is more column shaped - i think it was never pruned properly first year Question can i prune it now to create more leaves closer to trunk of tree i want way more leaves on branches ... is there a way ? if i cut before a fork in branch will it sprout new leaves where i cut it ? i am ok with it lookiing ugly for a while as i want more bushy
