CULTURAL NOTES
Choose an open sunny position in well-drained soil. While shape pruning occurs in Winter, low chill stone fruit can be managed with a pruning after harvest in Summer to encourage new growth that will be the fruiting wood for next season. Feed with a complete fertiliser or animal manure in July and again in December. Fruit fly control measures are advised in Spring.
