Training apricot fan
« on: July 08, 2010, 19:07 »
I have an apricot tree grown frm a stone about 3 or 4 years old but only about 3' high. All the books suggest it should be trained into a fan. As I haven't trained it from 1 or 2 years old is it still ok to start now? Would be great to get some advice  :happy:

I don`t see why not, Maxine.  Tie any suitable stems to a cane support. Wait until the dormant season before removing unwanted growth though. :D
