I'm learning how to prune my fruit trees, shrubs...

Find out when and how to prune your trees.

Here's a eulogy of slowness... Rather than rushing to the pruning shears or shears, he invites us to put the tools down first. Observe, reflect, understand how the tree functions and the natural mechanisms that govern its growth... These are the keys to successful pruning.

The various stages of tree construction explained in this book will give you a better grasp of the main principles of gentle pruning. Whether you're pruning fruit trees or ornamental trees and shrubs, a guide for each species details the specific features of the species or fruit tree concerned. Step by step, you'll learn about the needs of the trees in your garden or orchard.

Every tree has a story to tell... Alain Pontoppidan tells it with brio, succeeding in the tour de force of transforming a technical book into a real adventure story!
