Norfolk Fruit Tree Surgeon Specialist Pruning

A tree care blog by a Norfolk Tree Surgeon Simon Gerrard of Oak Leaf Trees
Norfolk Fruit Trees need specialist pruning techniques to keep the tree healthy and maintain good harvests.

Every tree and species is different, fruit trees particularly benefit from the Selective Reduction and Thinning pruning techniques which include the removal of sub dominant or weak branches. This opens the tree to light and air flow.  Improving the correct growth and helping increase fruit yields.

In rural Norfolk we see a lot of country gardens with overgrown fruit trees. Bramley apple trees especially can get very large, it’s important to bring them back into shape for the health of the tree and optimum fruit production.  When fruit trees are allowed to get overgrown they block light from the garden and within the tree itself. Branches need to be selectively thinned to prevent congestion, which will rub on the fruit and leave the harvest spoilt.  Fruit trees that have been heavily thinned or selectively reduced usually bare a good harvest the following year.

Oak Leaf Tree Surgery have expert Selective Reduction and Thinning pruning techniques for all types of Norfolk trees.
