The meaning and "use of": espalier
noun
- a fruit tree or ornamental shrub whose branches are trained to grow flat against a wall, supported on a lattice or a framework of stakes. - Because the fruit is so good, the trees are best grown as espaliers in a small garden, which will maximise fruit production against tree size.
- train (a tree or shrub) to grow flat against a wall. - Once you know what you are doing, you can prune 12 dwarf espaliered trees in an hour or maybe two each year.
