Taschenbuch. Etat : Neu. Neuware - >Pruning Fruit Trees is a practical, step-by-step guide for home gardeners who want healthier trees, stronger structure, manageable crowns, and more productive fruiting wood. Instead of giving one pruning formula for every tree, it explains how fruit trees grow, how they respond to different cuts, and how pruning decisions change with species, age, season, vigor, and tree condition. Whether you are pruning apple trees for the first time, trying to understand when to prune fruit trees, or restoring an old backyard orchard, this guide gives you a clear system for deciding what to keep, what to remove, what to shorten, and when to stop. It covers heading cuts, branch removal cuts, reduction cuts, crown thinning, height control, young tree training, maintenance pruning, rejuvenation pruning, and the restoration of neglected fruit trees. Crop-specific chapters explain apple tree pruning and the pruning of pears, quince, plums, cherry plums, sour cherries, sweet cherries, apricots, peaches, and nectarines. You will also learn the practical differences between winter pruning and summer pruning, how to manage watersprouts and fruiting wood, how to choose and use pruning tools safely, how to avoid common pruning mistakes, and what to do after pruning. The book also includes a seasonal pruning calendar, pre-pruning diagnosis, practical tables, checklists, and 49 black-and-white illustrations that clarify branch structure, pruning cuts, crown forms, renewal decisions, and species-specific techniques. If you have been searching for a fruit tree pruning guide that explains not only where to cut but why, this book is designed to help you prune with a plan, protect the tree from unnecessary stress, and build a healthier, more productive orchard over time. …
