Re: Removing leaves when and how
I only cut the dried brown ones. Any leaf that contributes to photosynthesis I leave it alone and I use a very sharp knife the one I use for grafting. Also I cut the browned pstem to expose the green bark for again photosynthesis. The main thing is the knife must be very sharp. I like the feel of the knife cutting to the tissue like butter; if it feels resistance replace the blade.
