SUCKERS ON FRUIT TREES.
The best time to remove suckers from fruit trees is during the autumn and winter months. Do not hesitate to remove them. So long as you do not injure
the roots of the trees, you need not be afraid to take away the soil and lay bare the suckers, as shown at A. If the suckers be simply cut off at the soil level as shown at B, more shoots will grow and prove troublesome all the summer.
