    I have two ornamental fruit trees that shade our front bay window for a bit of privacy. This year the malus has taken on a lot of growth which is great.

    Can I prune them now to encourage the right shape and ensure all its growth goes in the right places to maximise shade?

    Or is it too late now? Or will pruning frighten them!?
