What apple trees work best together for pollinating? |
The more reliable varieties for your region include: Cox Orange. Aromatic dessert apple. Yellow flesh. Red Delicious. A good winter apple and very resistant to fire blight. Golden Delicious. A fall apple of good flavor that bears sooner than most varieties. Also a good variety to plant with other apple trees to ensure good pollination. McIntosh. An all-purpose red apple. Johnathan. A popular apple but fairly susceptible to fire blight. Fameuse. Old variety similar to McIntosh. Many are self-fruitful but if you plant at least two of the above, you should have a heavy crop from both. |
