A Guide to Pruning Young Fruit Trees in Arid RegionsPaperback, 1 March 2011

This volume contains a vintage article on pruning young fruit trees in extremely dry regions, with information on tools and equipment, common problems, proper technique, and other related aspects. This timeless guide will be of utility to modern readers occupied in fruit production, and would make for a worthy addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: "High and Low Heads; Sun-Scald", "Form of Tree", "Shaping the Newly Planted Tree", "Subsequent Pruning", and "Pruning Young Peach Trees". Many vintage books such as this are becoming increasingly rare and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on growing fruit.
