    If the tree seems healthy otherwise, it is likely nothing to worry over, though I would check for insect pests and other signs of stress (i.e. yellowing, dying out, etc.). This article may also help: https://www.gardeningknowhow.com/ornamental/trees/tgen/peeling-bark-on-trees.htm

    Unfortunately, once a Pine has been cut to lose its shape, or lower branches, it is unlikely that you will get them to grow back. Grafting on a level like this is not really feasible, and will likely lead to infection and the tree's death.

    Unfortunately, the pine will permanently lack lower branches, but it may start to look better as the tree grows taller.

    If you intend to plant another tree there, then you MUST remove the stump. This article will help you to do so:

    Choosing a male scotch pine will reduce the cone drop, though there is still a chance that it will happen to some degree.

    In fact, choosing a male of any monoecious pine will reduce cone drop.
