Apple Tree Pollination

Apple trees require a second apple tree of a different variety for cross pollination. Also, pairing two apple tree varieties that bloom at the same time will maximize your cross pollination and yield better fruit production. Here we list our apple trees into three blooming times, Early season, Mid Season, and Late season bloom. For example if you wanted to Honeycrisp apple tree, it blooms Mid Season, so you would then pick from the others in that group. Make sure to check the USDA hardiness map to see what zone you can plant. If you have any questions, call us or email us.

***This is a general estimate for when apple trees bloom, it is meant to be a guide and not set in stone, as mother nature is in charge. Most trees have a long enough bloom time to pollinate the other trees in each category.

Early Blooming Apple Trees:

Mid Season Blooming

Late Season Blooming

COVID-19 INFO

The 2020 Apple Tree Guy season is in full swing and busier than ever. Normally we have a set weekend for the annual pickup for bare root orders. This year’s planned weekend was on May 16th. We are in the process of working out the details to extend that window of pickup from one weekend to a couple of weeks. This would prevent the gathering of groups of people (we had 300 to 400 people in one day last year) and help slow the spread of this nasty virus. Check back here for more details as they become available. If you have an existing order we will keep in contact via Email/phone once details change. Upon pickup we would ask you to either stay in your vehicle or to stay at least 10 feet away. Thanks for understanding and please stay healthy!
