Growth and pruning?

Hi, newbie here. I just planted a Red Push Pistache in June and the tree has had new growth at the base. It’s December in Las Vegas and I’m wondering if/how I should prune the tree. Other sites mention early winter for pruning, but what does that mean? It’s a 15 gallon tree.
15ft to light, direct
2” pot with drainage

Hi! These tree are gorgeous! I liked this article because it addresses young trees and with some good information if you haven’t read yet. Best of luck!
