Hello,
We bought a house earlier this year and the yard was fairly overgrown. We are not gardeners at all but we are trying to learn. This house came with an apple tree in the back yard. The large maple tree (I think it’s maple) behind it was growing over the apple tree, blocking most of not all of the sun. Anyway we just cut back the branches on the maple tree and I’d like to nurse this apple tree back to health. The leaves at the top look healthy but the ones toward the bottom are curling and look really unhappy. Any suggestions? Pruning? Watering? Fertilizer? Etc. I don’t know what I’m doing..so gardening for dummies for me. Thanks in advance
Also, someone cut back branches on the tree. I’m not sure when and the seller didn’t know either. He didn’t live at the house. So I’m not sure if cutting more would be healthy for the tree?
