Brendan says... I suppose this is a silly question, why do you keep picking the flowers off? Don't you want it to bear? I'd let it be :-)	About the Author Brendan Mackay, Q 15th September 2010 7:24am #UserID: 1947 Posts: 1722 View All Brendan's Edible Fruit Trees

Geoff says... Brendan, I am not sure if the tree is old enough to maintain the fruit.The trunk is only 2" in diameter. Sure I would like it to bear fruit, but I have heard from people that the first few years one should let the tree grow. The question is when should I let it bear fruit?

amanda says... Hi Geoff - maybe you should let it carry one or two fruit, on each branch, only. This may sastisfy the tree that it's reproducing :) and also test the strength of your branches - without overloading them? As it's 3yrs old I would have thought it would be ok by now - it's height is not so much a factor - but how strong the branches are and the strength of the junction between the branch and trunk.
