APPLE KARNEVAL - 9FM53-

Pollination
Apple trees are self-sterile and therefore do not bear fruit or bear fruit poorly, unless cross-pollinated with a specific variety. The ideal conditions for proper pollination are:

- take into account the prevailing wind in the case of anemophilous pollination (pollination by wind)

- in the case of entomophilous pollination (by pollinating insects), we recommend distances no greater than 20 meters.

In turn, the pollinator needs the plant it has pollinated to bear fruit (except in cases where it is self-fertile).

Planting times
Ideally, it is best to plant fruit trees in late autumn, that is, in the months of November and December (before the frost), although planting later in the winter is also possible if the ground is not frozen. Another ideal time for planting is February-March, or at the latest until mid-April. If the plants were previously grown in pots, planting can also be done in the following months, taking due care and keeping the root ball intact. Fruit trees grow well in fertile, deep, and permeable soil. If the soil is very clayey and rather compact, it is advisable to ensure deep drainage.

NB : The ripening times of all fruit trees can be early or late, even by a week or more, depending on exposure and climate.
