One typical espalier pattern is the BELGIAN FENCE (Palisade belge, Diamond lattice). Multiple plants create a living fence. The espalier plant-shaping methods work in any growing climate. Above, in a southern setting, an ivy espalier vine grows on wires along a Charleston alley. Below, Lizzie is looking at apple trees growing in front of a lovely brick wall at the entrance to the Chicago Botanic Garden in Illinois.
