@kimmysomelove42 just made a post for Tree Tuesday, and I love that idea! Here's my fruit trees that I pruned on #treetuesday today:
My Granny Smith apple tree
My Gala apple tree
TexRoyal peach 1
TexRoyal peach 2
Today was my first foray into tree pruning. @bobydimitrov has been talking with me about it and recommending resources, as I'm a bit scared of pruning. Afraid I'll mess something up. Wondering if I should trim that long branch on the first peach tree... It looks off balance.
Be blessed.
Be fruitful.
Stay relevant.
Nate.

Nice! I'm told citrus won't grow here, but I'm wondering if I can find some cold hardy varieties to grow...

I have a friend who has three citrus trees up here in NW Oregon! She keeps them in a greenhouse in the winter and moves them outside in the summer. They are in large pots. They produce a lot of fruit considering how small the trees are. And you should smell the greenhouse when they're in bloom. The orange blossoms are out of this world! I don't have a greenhouse yet, but when I do...

Happy little trees! I'm scared of pruning too. I'm never sure which is worse, pruning too much or not enough.

Hopefully they're happy! I'm just afraid of doing some irreparable damage lol but @bobydimitrov is so nonchalant about it and recommended a book! Of course, I'm gonna get the book and read it after I've started cutting lol

Of course! What's the book? We have a bunch of really old fruit trees which weren't properly pruned and I need to learn how to do it without killing them.

A small orchard in the making nice to see. Wish I had the space to do my own. I am looking at doing a few in pots maybe 💯🐒

I've heard it's feasible to cultivate dwarf fruit trees in large pots. Would be a fun project! A balcony orchard :)

This is my plan I have a few seeds planted although nothing showing yet. I'll pot them when they grow and hope to post. Then when I move I can take them with me 💯🐒
