About 6 months ago I bought a 8' tall Monterrey Oak that was a little beat up.
I planted it, took care of it, and now is looking kind of nice.
I was excited until I noticed a 1/2" diameter hole in the middle of the tree from what I think was a flush pruning, or maybe a branch that was yanked off the tree.
I don't want to cut the tree below that hole, because I wouldn't have much of a tree left. But I'm also concerned that I'll have to do it in the future and I wasted time that the tree could have been growing.
Here's some pictures of it.
