    Landscape Uses and Maintenance of Apple Fruit Trees

    Apple Trees are deciduous fruit trees that are an excellent investment for your property. These trees are a must-have for any gardener looking to live more sustainably. 

    Plant your new tree in full sun. In addition to ensuring the tree receives enough light, a full-sun location will help it dry out after morning dew, reducing the risk of fungal issues.

    Fertilize in early spring with a balanced formula. Do not fertilize after the midpoint of summer. Add a layer of compost, humus, or leaf mold around the base of the tree, staying away from the trunk. Do not create a volcano around your tree! Watch your trees for signs of disease or pests and treat quickly. Choosing varieties that are resistant to the issues is always a good idea to maintain orchard health. Flowers will attract pollinators like bees.

    Noteworthy Characteristics of Apple Fruit Trees

    Apple Trees 3-4' vary in crispness of bite, color, smell, and texture. Some are better suited for baking into an apple pie or processing into apple butter, while others are best enjoyed right off the tree.

    A Fine Addition

    The two Red Delicious Apple 🍎 trees are gonna make a fine addition to our growing homestead.
    They've been planted in large potting tubs for this season and will be relocated to their permanent beds next winter (spring), probably in February, when the ground has warmed to about 50 (F).

    Great condition

    I’m the past, I’ve ordered fruit trees from other sellers and had poor luck- plants would be brittle and in **** shape. I was AMAZED at the condition of my trees from TN Nursery. They were strong and healthy. And they came in record time (which is saying something. We live far in the country where mail takes a long time to arrive.) I will be buying from them again!!
