Apple Tree Details and
Information
Apple trees are deciduous, fruit bearing trees that
grow primarily in the northern hemisphere. They prefer the dry climate and warm summers of
Canada and America, and cannot be grown in the tropics, or above the Arctic Circle. There
are some apple trees that are now cultivated in Australia and New Zealand. When grown in
the wild, apple trees often have thorns on the branches, in order to protect the fruit.
Apple trees are also flowering trees, and it is the
pollination of their flowers that will allow for fruit to grow. When planting apple trees
in a garden, it is important to know that many apple trees do not self-pollinate. For this
reason, only one apple tree in the garden may not be able to produce much, if any fruit.
To solve this, plant several different varieties of apple trees with similar flowering
times to allow for cross-pollination.
Apple trees should be planted in November, if possible. They can also be planted up to the
end of March. This is when the soil is most friable. The apple trees should be planted
firmly, with the soil pressed down hard around the roots. The apple trees should then be
tied to a strong enough stake, for support until the roots take hold. Mulch should be
applied around the base of the apple trees, to help retain moisture during the first
growing period.
The fruit of apple trees come in many different sizes and colors, ranging from almost
cherry sized to grapefruit sized, yellow and green to red. The fruit from apple trees
should be eaten directly from the tree or within a week of harvest. Fruit that will be
stored from apple trees should be kept in a cool, dark, moist and frost-proof location.
