In order to better improve the fruit setting rate, artificial pollination is only carried out in flowering season. Different apple tree species planted together can play a cross-pollination role, so it is necessary to artificially pollinate in flowering period to be on the safe side!
apple tree (Malus pumila? Mill.): It is a deciduous tree. Usually, trees can be as high as 15 meters, but cultivated trees are only about 3-5 meters high. The trunk is grayish brown, and the bark has fallen off to some extent. The fruit is generally red, but it depends on the variety. The fruit of apple tree is rich in minerals and vitamins, and it is one of the most commonly eaten fruits.
The flowering period of apple trees depends on the local climate, but it is generally concentrated in April-May. Apple is a cross-pollinated plant, and most varieties can't bear fruit by themselves.
Generally, after the apple is planted, it takes 2-3 years to bear fruit. The length of fruit growth period is generally 65-87 days for early-maturing varieties, 9-133 days for middle-maturing varieties and 137-168 days for late-maturing varieties. In general, planted apples can have a life span of 15-5 years.
