How to Prune Apple and Pear Trees | Espaliered Fruit Tree Pruning

I love to prune my plants and trees and so I just got out there and did some pruning on my espaliered apple and pear trees. This time of year we're pruning the new sucker growth so that we can encourage fruit spurs that will fruit the following spring.

Pruning fruit trees, including apple and pear, in the summer will encourage fruit spurs to grow. Pruning in the winter will encourage sucker branches to grow the following summer.

I love the espaliered look of these fruit trees. The espalier style of pruning keeps your trees at a level that is easily managed and it keeps the garden looking nice and tidy.
