Pruning trained fruit trees
A trained fruit tree is a tree that has been carefully shaped and guided as it grows. This is done by pruning and tying its branches to a support (like a wall, fence, or wires) so it grows in a specific shape—such as flat against a wall or in a fan shape.
Common shapes include 
espalier
, 
fan
, and 
cordon
.
Training your fruit trees is great way to grow productive fruit trees in a small space, so perfect for little gardens or even just a sunny wall in the city.
Trained fruit trees require regular pruning to keep them in the desired form and producing lots of fruit. This course will show you how to prune a fruit tree for best results.
What to bring
If you have them, please bring along a sharp pair of secateurs, loppers, a pruning saw and a pair of rubber grip gardening gloves. If you don't have any of these things, not to worry, we'll provide them.
Remember to wear clothes and footwear appropriate for the weather.
What we'll provide
Participants will each receive a copy of Chloe Ward's excellent
 pruning guide
 "for real people with imperfect trees".
