1. Yup I also took advantage of the warm
   Day today to cut my fruit trees. Thanks for this video and your explanation. The outter bud technique was helpful.

2. Can you do summer pruning this year? I understand that winter pruning stimulates rapid growth while summer pruning dwarfs the tree. I would like to see it performed

3. Great content

4. Just in time. I wanted to prune my orchard trees tomorrow & you put up the video I needed. Thanks Laura! ❤

5. Hello Cheddar, good to see he is helping Laura. And it is always so exciting after the winter to see the beginning of spring pushing bulbs out xx

6. What camera/lens are you using? I can see one has better quality

7. Thank you, Laura, for your practical advice to us hobby gardeners. I appreciate your layman's education. YouTube is a perfect media venue for you and me to enjoy and educate.

8. Curious to know how you would go about pruning an espalier apple tree? I created espalier apple trees as an experiment last season but am having a hard time figuring how I should prune it. Any suggestions?

9. Seeing the pallet walkway is like seeing an old friend! I love it.

10. Ahh the cute little bulb sprouts! Haha is that all you have for bulb growth so far? In North Middlesex Ontario Canada we have had snow drops and some crocus come up a bit to premature. I feel like some are going to be short-lived after today's ice storm 🙃

11. Is there any signs of the bulbs in the orchard yet?

12. Any thoughts on pruning columnar trees? I have a dwarf, columnar Snow sweet apple tree and not sure how to prune

13. Can you share how to prune a lilac tree ( zone 6B)

14. Will you force any of the branches you cut off in a vase indoors? Would be welcome color at this time of year!

15. Yum! Fuji apples are my favorite and I just had one before watching! Thanks for sharing! Still loving your videos after all these years. 😊

16. Can you allow a sprout on a cherry tree to grow to become a two trunk tree?

17. Hi, please use something to protect your eyes.

18. My daughter and her husband moved into a house a year and a half ago. There are three fruit trees. I watched some videos and pruned the apple tree. It looks okay but I'm sure I didn't do everything exactly correct. Now there's a plum tree and a pear tree to do. I just watched your video and it was the best that I watched! You said you sprayed the trees even before pruning. May I ask what you sprayed them with? Was it for bugs or growth or what?

19. 💚💚💚

20. Hey y’all!❤ for smaller baby trees. Would you recommend pruning so hard or, letting them grow on and develop. I’m 5’9” and they only hit my chest area.

21. Hi Laura can any fruit tree be a good candidate for espalier?

22. Can you propagate fruit trees?
