| In the Permaculture "system" ... work is pollution. Set it up right in the first place and you will not have to work so hard. Dwarf fruit trees can be maintained at a size that would be accessible for a person using a chair. Have a look at the link below. Fireraven9 |

| Fireraven, thanks for that link. What an apple maniac!! Delightful!! Here are a couple links I found in my travels: http://www.davewilson.com/br40/TOC_whatisBOC.html recommends not only summer pruning to keep them SHORT, but also planting multiple trees in one hole! http://www.which.net/gardeningwhich/advice/training.html |
