| This is a craig's crimson cherry on zaiger newroot-1 rootsock. It's a bare root and just planted last week. The buds are breaking, in the picture the buds at the base are breaking. Questions: 1. Are these buds (suckers) coming from rootstock? 2. Should I remove these buds, since it is so close to graft union? 3. If I do need to remove it, should I seal them with tree sealer to prevent canker? (close to averge 4 inch rain per month weather) Sorry for the stupid questions. Just want to make sure I do it right. Thank you Alex |

| I would rub those off unless they are the only buds opening on the tree or you want a bush. Those look to be above the graft union. |
