So I've been working on this cherry tree for a while.. I'm thinling about what to do with the trunk.. I'm going to have to probably cut two of the potential trunks here.. any suggestions as to which one?

I would, based on the picture , remove the right branch complete, left branch cut above one or two buds and use the middle as new leader.

So I kept the right branch but only for now and I did some work on the roots to get it into a smaller pot. The flower buds are starting to move. Unfortunately the angle is not so good.. I'll try and get a better pic tomorrow.

Always nice to see a tree again after a while, looking forward to see the right branch removed (if that's  your plan)

I might cut it back to the lowest bud after it flowers and see if I can use it.
