Thanks for looking, John.

Yes, I noted in my original post that it is called espalier.

I think that kind of pruning where the tree is made to grow all in one
plane is called an "Espalier".

Thanks, Gonz!

The French do a lot of pruning.  Many of the trees on the grounds of Notre
Dame are pruned into cube shapes.  The guide explained that English
gardeners like to keep things as natural as possible, while French
gardeners like to demonstrate the domination of man over nature.

I love it, though I wish the tree was not "pruned" photographically
and the ends were visible!  Amazing!

Another from my trip to Monet's garden in Giverny.
This is one of many highly pruned and trained apple trees in the garden.
I believe this technique is called espalier.
