I have always been fascinated with Espalier, but I always thought it was for aborists or people with training.
Chris England shows this is just not the case and anyone can Espalier their own trees!
Vasili’s Garden got Chris England to show the world how to do it, on video
Chris also has a great nursery called Merrywood Plants in Baxter Victoria, where you can buy all the gear you need, including black lattice, which I have never seen before.
I’d love to have loads of espalier in my garden, but I’m not sure I know enough about my yard yet, to know where to put them. I’d particularly love blood oranges, but I’m not sure if these grow well in Victoria or not.
