Best Answer

There is much debate about the pruning of apricots. In general, apricot pruning should be kept to a minimum. Apricots are extremely vulnerable to the disease gummosis, which can enter the plant as a result of pruning. In climates that are wet in winter, prune lightly in summer. If summer is a damp season in your area, prune when it is your particular dry season. Other people recommend autumn. Always seal the cuts immediately with a pruning sealant.

Depending on where you live the best time is in the fall when trees are starting to go dormant. The previous answer is wrong. Weeping cherries bloom profusely unless you prune it in the fall. You should prune it (and all spring blooming trees) in the spring after the blooming is finished.


Do you needs 2 lemon trees to give fruit?

No, it just takes a long time for one to produce fruit. Like my cherry tree I had for 7 years and just last year it started producing cherries. Answer This depends on the trees . If they are nursery grown named varieties and compatible then two trees of the same family should give fruit. If one solitary tree is self fertile then it should produce fruit from year one. A tree grown from a seed may or may not produce worthwhile fruit.
