Growth Stages in Fruit Trees- From Dormant to Fruit Set

Author
Chapman, P.; Catlin, Gertrude
Abstract
In the present publication we identify, illustrate, name, and define what
we believe are the key growth stages for apple, pear, peach, plum and
prune, tart cherry, and sweet cherry. The growth period covered extends
from the dormant stage of the buds up to the initial setting of the fruit. It is
hoped that these designations have sufficient merit, collectively, to win
official acceptance beyond the confines of New York. For if this
transpires, at least that part of the horticultural world would be using the
same growth stage language.
