Apple, Pear and Quince Trees are pruned during winter dormancy to avoid stress to the tree, to allow adequate shaping and view of the tree without harming it. It can be intimidating! Look at all those branches! Where do I start? The good news is that pruning apple, pear and quince trees is not as difficult or overwhelming as it might seem. Book a consult with us to find out more or have us come and do the hard work for you!
Depending on the Berries or Currants you have, will determine when they need to be pruned. The aim is to remove damage and promote good growth for next season. Book a consult now and let us sort out your berries.
Stone fruit can be suseptible to fungal disorders if pruned during wet, unpredictable weather and wounds left open. These trees do better if they are pruned in summer after fruiting in dry, clear weather to maximise wound drying and healing and minimise the risk of disease development.
Young trees can also be pruned in early spring to encourage good shape and growth in the next season.
