How to Plant Northern Apple Trees
-
When Can Apple Trees Be Planted?
Late spring (after the last frost has passed) is the best time to plant apples.
-
Where Can You Plant Apple Trees?
Choose a location with full sun (any area about 6 to 8 hours of sunlight daily) and well-draining soil. After you've selected the ideal space, dig a hole large enough to accommodate the tree's entire root ball. If you’re planting multiple varieties, space your trees 30 feet apart. Finally, place your tree, pack the surrounding soil tightly, and water to settle the roots of your tree.
How Do You Prune Apple Trees?
To best maintain Apple Trees, we advise following the five Ps: Planting, Pruning, Pollination, Picking, and Preparation.
- Planting Apple Trees: Choose an area with plenty of sunlight, place your tree in a hole that accommodates its full root system, pack the soil tightly, and water the surrounding area.
- Pruning Any Apple Variety: Prune Apple Trees in winter, but wait until the third year of growth. Pruning is effortless - just remove any suckers or sprouts from the rootstock (leaves and small branches that grow below the tree's canopy) and weak or broken branches.
- Pollinating Northern Apples: The majority of our Apple Trees are self-fertile, but purchasing two or more Apple Trees ensures a larger harvest and more varied selection. If your Apple Tree does require a pollinator, select one of our recommend varieties listed on the tree's product page.
- Picking Apples For Harvest: Pull up on the apple and give it a gentle twist. Once your apple harvest is ready, the fruit will come off the tree easily. You can also cut one open to check for ripeness: ripe apples will have brown seeds and sweet flavor notes.
- Preparing Apples to Can or Store: Generally, most gardeners should expect to get 20 large bushels of apples per tree! And depending on the particular type of tree, your apples may keep anywhere from three weeks to three or more months. If you're not sure when you will use or eat your apples, they can be preserved by dehydrating or canning the fruit.
