#pruning advice please! I thought this little #CherryTree was dead; is it too late to do a winter pruning? Our cold weather was about two week of frosty nights, last month. The buds are showing green, just.

Also, all the buds are at the very ends of the branches - *can* i prune them without starving it? Prune a fraction, maybe?

I’m trying to follow _Grow A Little Fruit Tree_, am at the 3rd year.

Black branched leafless little tree, and on the very ends of the branches, clusters of buds just beginning to show green


Finally! After about 2 month's delay due to bad winter weather, I have finally finished pruning the last of my apple trees. This one is about 50 years old and is a heritage New England variety called "Baldwin". Makes the best pies ever and the apples keep a good, long time. Now on to prune the raspberry patch. 😀

A mature apple tree set in a grassy field.  Tree shows massive vertical growth at the top and reaches about 28 feet  / 8.5 meters in height.  Most of the branches are bare but a few leaves cling on near the tips of the sprouts.  Bright sun, clear blue sky.  A few houses and sheds appear in the background.  Tree needs a lot of pruning.
