About the Event
Not sure where to begin with pruning your fruit trees? Come and find out how to train a young tree or tame a neglected tree to ensure its longevity and increase production.
While Che is mainly known for his bonsai, his horticultural knowledge extends to large trees too. Pruning, shaping and understanding how a tree will respond is what Che is all about.
This workshop is a practical, hands-on guide to winter fruit tree pruning for optimum subsequent season fruiting. Get stuck in with the loppers and secateurs with guidance and support to build your confidence. The trees you'll be looking at specifically are figs, persimmon, feijoa and apple, but the same pruning principles apply to many other fruit trees too.
