Town Farm's Tips -
Still only a young tree. Gets a fair bit of wind and salt air. A bit leggy and plan to prune back this year to increase density a bit. Very happy. About half a dozen fruit last season but quite a few more on tree now. Seems to be very hardy - no pests at this stage.
Has plenty of fruit on it and am having trouble deciding when to prune back to stop it getting too leggy - just keeps flowering and fruiting!!
Question:
How do I get around the fact that the tree keeps flowering and doesn't give me a change to clip it back so it doesn't get too leggy? By the time the fruit has ripened, there are more flowers/ baby fruit on it.
