Landscape Uses and Maintenance – Apple Fruit Trees 3-4'

Apple Fruit Trees 3-4' are deciduous fruit trees that are a great investment for your property. These trees are simply a must have for any gardener trying to live a more sustainable life! Apple Trees get small white, pink, or red flowers that bloom in the spring.

Water thoroughly until well established; then let Mother Nature water. Plant in well draining soil. Do not plant in waterlogged or compacted soil.

As with many fruit trees, this tree needs care and maintenance. Be ready to tend to this tree and give it plenty of attention.

Plant your new tree in full sun. A full sun location is that which gets 8 hours of sunlight per day. In addition to ensuring that the tree is getting enough light, a full sun location will help make sure that your trees will dry out after morning dew, in turn decreasing the chance of fungal issues.

Fertilize in early spring with a balanced formula. Do not fertilize after the midpoint of summer. Add a layer of compost, humus, or leaf mold around the base of the tree, making sure to stay away from the trunk. Do not create a volcano around your tree!

Watch your trees for signs of disease or pests and treat quickly. Choosing varieties that are resistant to the issues is always a good idea to maintain orchard health.

Flowers will attract pollinators like bees.

Noteworthy Characteristics

Apple Fruit Trees 3-4' vary in crispness of bite, color, smell, and texture. Some are better for baking into an apple pie or processing into apple butter, while others are best for eating right off the tree.

Care

Apple trees thrive with frequent watering, particularly during dry spells, and help from fertilizer in early spring. Prune annually to encourage airflow and remove dead branches. Mulch the base to maintain moisture and stop weeds.

Plant Reproduction

Apple fruit trees spread through seed dispersal and grafting.

Plant fruit trees in early spring or late fall when the weather is cool. Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Dig a hole twice the width of the roots and double as deep as the root system. When the tree is put in the hole, make sure the graft union (a noticeable bump where the tree was grafted above the rootstock) is above the soil line. Put dug-out soil around the tree roots, gently firmly remove air pockets, and water thoroughly.
Water young trees regularly, especially during dry spells, to establish a robust root system. Once established, water deeply and less frequently. Prune fruit trees yearly during the dormant season to remove dead or diseased wood, improve air circulation, and shape the tree for optimal fruit production. Fertilize in early spring and thin the fruit when necessary to prevent overbearing, which can stress the tree and reduce fruit quality.
