Spur and Semi-spur Apple Varieties Over 1000 spur and semi-spur varieties
listed. Apple trees that have fruit on spurs or semi-spurs are more dwarfing.
They also require special pruning techniques.

Tip and Partial-tip Apple Varieties Over 350 varieties listed. Fruit are borne
on the tip of the branches, and are weeping and require little to no pruning.

 SPUR-TYPE FRUITING APPLES FOR THE HOME ORCHARD

For home orchardists there are several advantages in growing spurtype

trees. As the name indicates, the fruit is borne on spurs. Spurs are slow growing
leafy shoots and have a mixed terminal bud. A mixed terminal bud will produce
shoot and flowers. In apples, spurs develop on twoyear old shoots from axillary
buds located at the base of each leaf. Axillary buds on a spur can give rise to
shoots or new spurs. A branched spur system forms after several years when
new spur form on old spurs. Spurtype strains are more dwarfing than the
standard stain. When spur and standard strains were compared in Washington
rootstock trials, the spurs were 25% smaller than standard stains. Spurtype
apples have a growing and fruiting characteristic in which lateral (axillary) buds
on two year old wood gives rise to a higher portion of spurs and fewer lateral
shoots than occur with standard growth habits. This gives the tree a more open
canopy and compact growth habit than standard trees. Research indicates that
they have approximately half the canopy volume of standard strains. Spurtype
varieties generally have strong, narrowangled lower branches and a relatively
weak central leader. All of this makes them easier to prune.

Spurtype trees are usually mutations of standard fruiting trees. Because

of this, growers and nurserymen are watching for these mutations to occur. Note
the number of spurtype Red Delicious.

In older spurtype trees, the spurs will dominate growth and there will be
little to no annual shoot growth. Therefore, spurtype trees require special
pruning techniques to encourage spurs and replace old spurs.

 TIP OR PARTIAL TIP BEARERS
SPECIAL PRUNING TECHNIQUES

Some apples fruit at the tips of their branches and are termed "tipbearers"
or "partial tipbearers." These trees produce all or almost all of their fruit on the
branch tips. Do not head back severely when pruning, as you will remove your
crop. Tip-bearers are less productive than spur type trees.

PRUNING TIPBEARERS

When growing tip-bearers as highly trained forms (i.e., espalier, fan,

cordon), these should be summer pruned in the same way as all cultivars. When
grown as less highly trained forms (central leader, slender spindle) that are
pruned in late winter or early spring, the best suggestion is to leave nonfruiting
laterals up to 23 cm (9 in) in length. Then the fruit bud can develop at the tip.
Shorten longer laterals to 4 buds, to encourage development of short sublaterals
the following year. Using the same principle, prune leaders lightly. Although
tipbearers are naturally spindly or droopy, the suggested pruning may cause
over crowding and winter thinning of laterals may be needed.
