Remove some lower branches to reveal the primary stem or a limited number of multiple stems to remain.
Prune the lower lateral growth from the selected stems as the tree grows taller.

Light pruning for structural integrity, winter dormant spray to suppress overwintering pest and fungal issues, water to prevent drying.
