Planted this kieffer pear in the fall of 15. I got it cheap from lowes and it had been top cut about 45" up or so. It now has several leaders growing out sideways from the top cut. Should I prune it somehow or just leave it? I feel if I try to prune to a single leader ill end up hacking most of the tree and not a single stem is straight without a big bend on the bottom.
