pruning a neglected and overgrown apple tree. Sorry that due to the dark background (one of our hedges) the contrast is a little poor, this was the nearest we had to a neglected apple tree and short of hanging a white sheet over the hedge for contrast, this was th ebest we could do.

Pruning a neglected apple tree is not difficult. Often when you move into a new house there is a tree nobody has cared for a dn it is overgrown. Don’t worry, unless the tree is seriously post mature, diseased, very badly situated or a variety you really don’t like, a few simple principles and a sharp saw will see it all right

Sorry about the wind noise, it gets better as the video goes on. Stephen Hayes of Fruitwise Heritage Apples advises on pruning the Bramley apple and other apple trees with a similar habit of growth (vigorous, triploid, tip bearer). Part 1, in part 2 the actual pruning will be demonstrated.

The series of practical apple tree pruning tutorials continues with a look at the use of the pruning saw. You can use cheaper models (the Sandvik is OK) but for 3 years now we have only used the Silky Fox brand saws, specifically the Gomtaro Apple Ringo 300mm. This has a very thin blade and graduated tooth size which gives an exceptionally clean cut.

Further advice on apple tree winter pruning from Fruitwise Heritage Apples. Inevitably there is some repetition and overlap between these tutorials, no matter. I also apologise for having a sniffly nose-sorry, but it is cold! Here I look at thinning overcrowded fruit spurs, more of a problem on some varieties than others.

Stephen Hayes of Fruitwise Heritage Apples offers a series of video tutorials on pruning of apple trees. I do not claim to be an ‘expert’, I have learned about pruning from reading every book I could find and studying the trees themselves.
