Fruit Trees

The sun came out for a moment and I took the opportunity to run outside and do a little tree maintenance. My fruit trees are semi dwarf and I'm pruning them in shapes that fit the natural growth of the branches. It is really an art to make the trees have a beautiful shape.


















The ladder climbing cat needs to help.


























I've trimmed off all the dead and broken branches, then any pieces that were crossing or growing straight up. Now with some sun and a little luck there will be bucket loads of fruit!
