Trellis fruit offers yield and privacy in one and, according to the "schoener-wohnen.de" portal, also acts as an elegant alternative to traditional walls or hedges. Cultivating trees on trellises makes it possible to grow apples, pears, cherries and other types of fruit even in smaller gardens.
Shaping fruit trees on wooden or steel scaffolding is a centuries-old technique that also offers advantages for the fruit. All fruit receives uniform sunlight, which improves quality. In addition, this method can also be used to grow heat-loving fruit varieties in colder regions, for example on a house wall.
Trellis fruit can be seen in various forms, including U-shaped trellises, horizontal or simple palmettes and vertical string trees. Which form is chosen depends on the space and the type of fruit. All forms are relatively easy to care for and only require regular pruning. If you would like to find out more about espalier fruit, you will find what you are looking for at schoener-wohnen.de.
