Planting Apple Trees
Apple Trees are ideal for beginners because they’re easy to plant and maintain. In fact, they’re known as the starter fruit tree. Plus, because your Apple Tree already boasts several years of growth by the time it arrives at your door, you’ll be able to reap the benefits of healthful fruit during the very first year. From Low Chill Apple Trees and every type in between, we have what you’re looking for.
How to Plant Apple Trees
- When? Spring is the best time to plant your Apple Tree.
- Where? Choose a location with full sun and well-draining soil, in a hole large enough to accommodate the entire root ball.
- How? If you’re planting multiple Apple Trees, space them 30 to 35 feet apart. Place your tree in a hole big enough to accommodate the entire root system, pack tightly and water. It’s that simple.
How to Prune Apple Trees and More
Because we’ve grafted your tree from a specific mother variety, you can expect consistency and ease for the life of the tree. Basically, it will produce the same delicious fruit, season after season.
It’s simple – we follow the five Ps: Planting, Pruning, Pollination, Picking and Preparation.
- Planting: Choose a sunny area to plant, place your tree in a hole big enough to accommodate its entire root system, pack the soil tightly and water.
- Pruning: Prune your tree during winter, around the third year of its growth, by removing any suckers or sprouts from the rootstock and downward-growing or broken branches.
- Pollination: Our Apple Trees are self-fertile, but purchasing two or more Apple Trees ensures a larger harvest, longer growing season and more apple variety.
- Picking: Pull upwards on the apple and give it a twist – it will come off your tree easily once it’s ready. You can cut one open to check for ripeness, but ripe apples will have brown seeds and a sweet taste.
- Preparation: You can expect to get 20 boxes of apples that weigh up to 42 pounds each – per tree! Depending on the variety of your tree, your apples will keep anywhere from 2 to 3 weeks to 3 to 6 months. If you’re unable to use them, they can be preserved by canning or dehydrating.
Frequently Asked Questions
How long does it take for an Apple Tree to bear fruit?
Your Apple Tree will typically bear fruit within a few years of planting it, but the exact timing will depend on your specific location and growing conditions. Keep in mind that grafted trees will bear fruit much faster than those grown from seed. You can also increase your fruit yield by planting more Apple Trees for better cross-pollination.
Are Apple Trees hard to grow?
As long as you follow our planting and care tips, you should have success with your Apple Trees! Apple Trees are known to be hardy and can withstand many conditions like cold and wind, but you’ll still want to provide them with a little love and care for best results. That way, you can expect delicious fruit for years to come!
Where do Apple Trees grow best?
Apple Trees grow best in a full-sun location with well-draining soil and good air circulation. You don’t want to plant them in low-lying or wet areas, as this will hinder their growth.
Do you need two Apple Trees to produce fruit?
Our Apple Trees are self-pollinating, but planting two or more Apple Trees together will give you a larger harvest, longer growing season, and greater apple variety.
