  • Fan trained Morello cherries

    Can anyone point me in the right direction for training fan trained Morello cherries
    For dummies some detailed pictures of where to prune would be excellent

    There is an RHS book on pruning fruit trees, I have a copy somewhere just not sure where.
    Get one that is at least forced into an approximate shape.
    I will also say that they are not something that you can prune once or twice a year and expect them to develop into a fan. During the growing season more like weekly then tapering off to every 2 weeks then monthly. I say this from experience.

    I also found my Morello developed a fair amount of bare stems that had a couple of leaves on the end only. Never looked right.

    Search the net for free books (usually pdf's) on fruit tree training. I would expect a number to be around somewhere.
