Apple tree transparent pruning – great results
Last November I described how expert pruner Posy Gentles tackled our tangled old apple tree to improve its look and health.

Pruning our old apple tree
Our lovely old apple tree had previously been pruned so hard that it now had a tangled mass of new vertical shoots. It was dense, cast too much shade, and hadn’t produced many apples for years. I called in an expert pruner called Posy Gentles who specialises in transparent pruning of trees and shrubs. www.posygentles.co.uk She
