It’s true and an important consideration. A book that has been helpful for me is “Grow a Little Fruit Tree” – it discusses the practice of early pruning to keep trees small.

How close we can plant trees in a small area? It is something to think about when beginning to plan your forest. Please help on this? Thanks, Pam in Fort Mohave, AZ

If they can do it in Arizona, I can make it happen in my humid midwest climate!
