Not too clear...but you get the idea |
Our dwarf cherry has a leader branch and three side branches. We pruned the leader back a bit. I recommend that you drive stakes into the ground under the three side branches and attach them by cord and pull them to almost horizontal. You will get more fruit and it will grow less vigorously which is desirable for a dwarf tree.
Makes perfect sense and what a good fellow to help you out with that. For a dwarf fruit tree...this was awesome advice and I appreciate knowing it and seeing the technique.

ReplyDeletePoor thing. It looks as if it is undergoing some sort of fiendish torture!
ReplyDeleteIt's true Mark. It's a price the poor little thing has to pay. :-)
