Hi All!!

This is my first time cutting back brugs....I am very nervous doing this.... I sanitized my clippers in boiling water, and have cut the leaves off....This is my no name pink I bought locally this spring....So far I have just taken all the leaves off....now for the hard part.....to do the cuttings....Yikes! ......Oh, another thing, I just noticed this on the trunk.....Is it anything bad?

Thanks for looking!!
