[IBC] Crabapple
In a message dated 4/26/04 11:03:49 AM, STEVEW70146 writes:
One of my Crab Apples flowered last month, and has developed fruit. How do you get them to fruit? Mine didn't. If I am not mistaken Blossom buds form on tips of older* branches Somebody reminded me they set buds early, so I pruned it already. Looks a lot neater. I heard or read somewhere that crabapples respond poorly to defoliation: the leaves come back just as big. Hopefully they will reduce as the tree becomes twiggier.
