ABSTRACT:
It has been found that the insertion of a copper object through the bark of the flowering tree prior to the setting of the fruiting wood of said tree will cause substantial enhancement of the flowering of said tree with consequent increase of fruit where produced, while limiting the growth of the foliage.
This effect is reversible in that removal of the copper object prior to the setting of the fruiting wood will return the tree to the normal ratio of flower and fruit to foliage.
