Pruning a Multi Variety Pear Tree

[@james2592OldLeatherSmith]

OLD Leather Smith here, very nice, thank you, I purchased mine @ only 3" high now it's 8' high. I am guessing you prune in the fall when it's dormant. Thanks 4 your video.

@@james2592OldLeatherSmith I try to prune everything in the late winter and early spring. Sometimes I start early and I have enough pruning that I end up finishing late in the spring.

What is the central leader on a multi-variety tree? Is it the rootstock? One of the varieties?

[@fruitpruningchannel]

A multi variety tree will be composed of rootstock, a scion (which I refer to as the mother tree) and several other varieties grafted to the mother tree. The mother tree is one of the varieties.

@@fruitpruningchannel Thank you!

Does late summer pruning make any difference, or does it still just come back as though it had been pruned while dormant?

[@fruitpruningchannel]

Yes! A summer pruning will help have fewer water sprouts.
