If I understand properly, When the whip reaches the first trellis bar I
cut it off and with a little luck 2 dormant lateral buds will emerge,
along with a new leader. This is repeated at each new cordon level. Is
that correct?
In your experience what is the best distance between cordons for a
espaliered crabapple?
Is there anything I should do to encourage the two laterals and new leader
to develop at each cut?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Tom
