How To Prune A Peach Tree In Four Simple Steps

Not unlike pruning apple trees . More harm is done by not pruning to maintain the shape of the tree , vase shape in apple and peaches , pyramid shaping in pears . Directional pruning is also important to balance the weight of the scaffold branches , this is just pruning above a bud thats on the side where you want the new growth to go . Enjoyable video to watch .

when we first planted mine, i didnt realise pruning early on was beneficial as it was then you shape the tree how you want it down the road, instead im currently making up for the lost time now, luckily kept them short so half the battle is already fought

That video is really well done and informative. I took a look at our trees this evening and at a glance have an idea regarding what I need to do.

I just need a slightly warmer day to do it.
