What our customers say: I have ordered quite a lot from online gardening sites over the years and I have to say your plants look the best and healthiest I have ever received. Thanks so much for the fruit trees. As others have said, they are bigger than I'd anticipated, were of excellent quality, and very well packaged. What a great service you provide!

SITUATION
Most suburban situations provide good pollen due to the close proximity of other gardens. It is not always necessary to have pollinators if the bees and other pollinating insects are generous with their visits.
If you have no other Apple tree close by then select two varieties in the same group or the adjoining group ie group 2 and 4 will pollinate group 3 as will any others in group 3. Some varieties are self fertile.
