Apple Trees
🌸 Apple Tree Pollination Made Simple
Apple trees are monoecious and have perfect flowers (each flower has both male and female parts), but most are self-incompatible—meaning they need a different apple variety nearby to produce fruit.
An exception is Yellow (Golden) Delicious, which is self-fertile and can also help pollinate other varieties.
To ensure a good harvest, plant at least two different apple varieties that bloom at the same time.

Pear Trees
