ESPALIER

The Single Vertical
Cordon, shown at the left, is the simplest Espalier form. It is usually planted in
combination with more elaborate forms, especially at the ends of a planting. It may also
be planted in rows along a wall, as a screen, along leaders, against house corners, etc.
Because of their small size the trees can be planted as close to one foot. A row of Single
Cordons makes an interesting division line between the vegetable and the fruit garden. SINGLE VERTICAL CORDON
