I didn't get the apricot tree pruned this past winter nor did I get it sprayed for those annoying moths but my tree had just finished a full, beautiful bloom -- and we got a hard freeze. One day the high was 17 degrees. All the budding fruit is hard and totally gone. Will be getting nothing off this tree. Can I prune it back now?
It is my understanding that the tree grows fruit on limbs from the previous year. So, if I trim it now, it should grow new wood this year and fruit off of that, correct?
Please enlighten me. :/
