Ginda,

Here are a few websites that describe apple tree trellising/espaliers:

Subject: [NAFEX] espalier apples

I have some baby apples trees I planted this spring, and I'd like to

espalier them.   Any advice, suggestions, etc?

I have three cultivars on three rootstocks, and I may graft one or two

over to something else next year.  (I couldn't buy exactly what I

wanted, but I was able to get all the parts.)  I was thinking it might

be fun to get fancy and have different cultivars on different limbs,

instead of grafting the whole thing.  Has anyone tried anything like

this?  Or is it more trouble than its worth?

Thanks,

Ginda
