How to Prune an Apple Tree
£5.00Availability: In stockOut of stock
An excellent little book that starts with understanding your tree and the effect of pruning. The rest of the 30 page book takes the reader through three stages
– formative pruning early in a trees life to get them into fruiting. This can be applied to the trees we supply.
– maintenance pruning to get a balance of growth & fruit production once the trees have developed their shape and are into fruiting.
– restorative pruning to improve older trees vigour, shape & fruiting. Older trees can become out of shape or unproductive. Neglected trees may have become oversized or congested. All will benefit from restorative pruning.
A very understandable book that will give confidence to any reader. Though aimed particularly at apple trees the principles apply to pear trees aswell.

Growing Fruit book

We often recommend this RHS book by the former Fruit Officer at RHS Wisley Gardens so we thought we would supply it. It covers the growing and training of all that we have available and more.
Dedicated chapters on enviromental matters – climate, siting fruit and soils & drainage. Followed by soft fruit sections – Raspberries, Blackberries, Blackcurrants, Red & White currants, Gooseberries, Grapes & Strawberries.
The latter part of the book covers all types of growing tree fruits – Apples, Pears, Plums, Cherries, Quinces & Medlars. Also covered are more tender fruits – Peaches & Nectarines, Apricots and Figs.
No photographs but lots of clear line drawings. Do not be disappointed if your training of trees and bushes do not turn out to be as satisfactory as the drawings in the book!
A very comprehensive book
