Abby Rose


This upright took a bit of training. Some varieties can go either way, upright or hanging. Some call it "mounding" others call it "lax." To encourage a mounding form to grow upwards may require a temporary stake. And it will require pruning all branches growing downwards. The end result is a very interesting form with height it would have taken it many years to attain on it's own.
