• Maintaining fruit trees at a reasonable height is always to the advantage of home-growers, even when space is not a problem.
• You will have less ladder work, use fewer materials and have lower costs for spraying. Not to mention an easier harvest.
I have about 30 DWN trees in my smallish backyard. Flavor Supreme and Flavor King are to die for. This backyard orchard is in Burbank - about 13 miles from the Pacific coast as the crow flies.
