What a great idea for a thread Vi!

My favorite shape is an alley trees. Then you can underplant. I believe in cramming in all you can. I find my best alley trees are either from seedlings or suckers that I let grow on the mother plant until it is as tall as I want. Then I cut it off. You need to stake them early if you want them straight. They curve fast and then they harden!

Here are 3 new ones on my front porch that I just cut from their mothers last week.
