Things you should be doing with young fruit trees
When Buying Bare Root Fruit Trees from Daleys Fruit Tree Nursery you need to make sure that you remove the fruit in the first 2 years. Some people think it's a choice to make but to have a healthy fruit tree you really need to do this so you create a health fruit tree. Grafted fruit trees do not go through all the stages that a seedling tree go through particularly the juvenile stage where seedling trees do not fruit but develop. Grafted Fruit Trees will want to flower and fruit straight away. It is therefore recommended to remove all the fruit in these first years.
