Home Gardener's Guide to Fruit Trees using Tree Science as Your guide Pt 3: grafting explained/prune

Power to the Flower's Home Gardener's Guide to Fruit trees continues with Part 3! My special guest Ted DeJong, retired pomologist from UC Davis joins us to discuss tree propagation, grafting multiple trees on one rootstock, how to prune wonky trees, and specifically all about apple trees. Ted's theory is to educate people about how trees grow in order to empower them to make their own choices about how to care for a tree. I whole heartedly agree with this as I have leaned so much! I hope you do too!
