Pollination Info
2-in-1 Fruit Snacks® Columnar Apple Trees are self-pollinating. You will get fruit with only one plant. However, adding an additional 2-in-1 Fruit Snacks® Columnar Apple Tree will drastically increase the size of your crop.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Select an area that receives at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. Once you’ve selected a location, dig a hole that’s twice the width of the root ball and just as deep. Place your new tree, backfill the hole, and then mulch to preserve moisture. Finally, water to settle the roots.
For container planting, choose a pot with drainage holes that’s about twice the width of your tree’s shipped container. Use organic soil, place your tree, and backfill. Water to settle the roots after planting.
2. Watering: Water apple trees deeply and regularly, especially during dry spells, ensuring that the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and promote optimal growth.
3. Fertilizing: Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer according to package instructions. Repeat the application in late spring or early summer to support healthy growth.
4. Pruning: Once your tree has become established and is starting to bear fruit, it will need some periodic, moderate pruning. Only prune the tree during times of dormancy, making sure to remove any vigorous, upright stems and weak, damaged, or dead branches.
5. Pollination: 2-in-1 Fruit Snacks® Columnar Apple Tree trees are self-pollinating. However, to achieve higher yields of fruit, you may want to plant another variety nearby. Below are the most effective pollinators we have chosen for your area:
