Fruit trees mix Description

Fruit trees mix is a broad product category containing assorted fruit tree species and cultivars. Depending on the plant supplied, it may produce apples, pears, plums, cherries or another tree fruit, with differences in eventual height, rootstock, flowering period and harvest season. Most fruit trees perform best in full sun in fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil, with shelter from severe wind helping pollination and fruit development. Some cultivars are self-fertile, while others need a compatible tree flowering nearby to produce a reliable crop. Check the label for the exact variety, pollination group and expected mature size before choosing a position. Water thoroughly while establishing, keep grass and weeds away from the trunk and prune according to the requirements of the fruit species supplied.
