This poor 'Liberty' apple tree was the one that we needed to prune to get the esplaier back! Well, guess what it thought that it should bloom again!!!! Big mistake! When I'm at Gardenline I tell callers not to prune any tree or shrub later than July 15th. Then it doesn't get the idea to grow new growth! YIKES! Now there isn't enough time for the fruit to mature! Oh, well, pray it makes it through the winter and then we can prune it correctly in early March!
