Summer pruning
Summer fruit tree pruning is important for managing any unwanted growth from the spring and for encouraging fruit production. The right balance between winter and summer pruning is what will produce healthy, productive trees.
Join us to learn the theory and practice of summer fruit tree pruning, and together we will help to maintain the fruit trees at Western Flatts Cliff Park.
B y the end of the workshop, you will know how to:
Prune stone fruit trees, including plum, damson, cherry, apricot and almond.
Prune new growth on apple and pear trees following winter pruning.
Prune trees to encourage fruit production
What to bring
If you have them, please bring along a sharp pair of secateurs, loppers, a pruning saw and a pair of rubber grip gardening gloves. If you don't have any of these things, not to worry, we'll provide them.
Remember to wear clothes and footwear appropriate for the weather and mud!
What we'll provide
Tea and coffee.
Participants will each receive a copy of Chloe Ward's excellent
 pruning guide
 "for real people with imperfect trees".
