<div>In time all this became the stuff of legend in our family. We still joke about it, and the pie that hid for three years in the back of the freezer has become a symbol of stubborn survival. Small wonder that these unpretentious trees in our back yard still hold a special place in our family memory.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Optimize Shipping: Shipping is calculated by box size.

Our bare root fruit trees are headed back to fit in the 60" tall box that they will ship in. Branches are seldom removed during this process unless dead or damaged and are only reduced to fit the tree in the box so that the grower can decide what branches to keep or remove. This is done in a way that will allow the home grower to continue to grow the tree as a central leader or prune the tree to an open center.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Apples are pollinated by insects, with bees and flies transferring pollen from flowers of one apple tree to those of another. But you don't need to plant a whole orchard to enjoy apples right off the tree. Two trees will reward any family with enough fruit to enjoy and share with friends.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Apples require pollen from a different apple variety to grow fruit. If you only have room in your yard for one tree, there may be crab apples in your neighborhood to provide the pollen your tree needs.</div><div></div><div></div><div>This rootstock, sometimes termed 'semi-dwarfing,' other times 'semi-standard,' produces a tree about 80% of the height of a standard tree. In many areas of Minnesota, this can work out to roughly a 14-18 foot tree.</div><div></div><div></div><div>M.9 has poor anchorage due to brittle roots and a high fruit to wood ratio which means it requires staking for the life of the tree. M.9 is very susceptible to fire blight. It produces moderate amounts of root suckers and burr knots.</div><div></div><div></div><div>How much space do you need for apple trees? A good rule of thumb for a garden fruit tree is to provide at least as much horizontal space as the anticipated height of the tree. So, if your tree will grow up to 8 feet high, make sure there are 8 feet between it and the next tree.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Throughout the life of the tree, you should water its root zone thoroughly during the growing season whenever there is a dry spell. Ideally, the tree should receive one inch of water from rainfall or irrigation every week from May through October.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>It's a good idea to stake the tree for the first few years. Either a wooden or metal stake will work. A stake should be about the height of the tree after being pounded two feet into the ground. Use a wide piece non-abrasive material to fasten the tree to the stake. Avoid narrow fastenings such as wire or twine, as they may cut into the bark.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Once the tree has rough and flaky mature bark, neither winter sun nor chewing animals can harm it, so tree guards will not be necessary. For the first years of its life, however, it's important to protect the trunk of your fruit tree.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The color of an apple is only one indicator of its ripeness. Sweetness is an indicator of maturity and harvest readiness along with fruit size and color. There is a popular idea that some later apple varieties need a frost to sweeten them before picking. However, apples will ripen and sweeten up without a frost.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Apples last the longest at standard refrigerator temperatures, about 33F to 38F, with about 85 percent humidity. Although garages, basements and root cellars may provide adequate storage conditions, the best place to store apples at home is usually the refrigerator.</div><div></div><div></div><div>A brief dip below 28 degrees may just weaken the apples enough to decrease their shelf life. Several nights below 28 degrees are more likely to soften the skin and flesh of the apple, making the fruit unusable.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Fruit trees should be pruned every year in late winter/early spring, preferably after the coldest weather is past, and before growth begins. Prune minimally, especially with young trees, as excessive pruning will delay or reduce fruiting and create too much leafy growth.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Many apple trees are pruned and trained to allow a central main stem, or leader, to be the foundation of the tree off of which side branches, or scaffolds grow. The tree ends up with a conical or pyramid form. This is called central leader pruning. This is a simple pruning method, and it makes for a compact, balanced, easily managed tree, with fruit that has maximum access to sunlight and air circulation.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Have you moved into a house that has an old, overgrown apple tree? Are the branches overlapping and going every which way? Don't lose hope. This tree is probably fine, it just needs a little work to get it back in shape and productive again.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Reclaiming a mature apple tree that has been neglected for several years can be a challenge, and will take a few years of pruning to make the tree productive again. Here are a few guidelines for renovating a neglected tree:</div><div></div><div></div><div>As you prune your young tree to achieve a good form, you may also need to train it. Training primarily consists of bending young, flexible branches that are growing vertically into more horizontal positions, toward a 60 degree angle from the main stem. Some apple varieties produce strongly vertical growth and need more training; others tend to produce branches that are naturally well-angled.</div><div></div><div></div><div>There are several different insect pests of apples, some of which you may see every year, while others you may rarely encounter. Simple activities like removing dropped apples and cleaning up leaf litter in the fall will help manage multiple pests.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Keeping scab infection to a minimum begins with raking and removing leaves from under the tree the previous fall. Planting varieties that are resistant to scab is another way to minimize infection. William's Pride, Freedom, and Liberty are immune to this disease. Honeycrisp has some immunity as well.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Fire blight is caused by a bacterial infection that can kill blossoms, shoots, and eventually entire trees. You might see this disease on the trunk or limbs of a tree as a sunken area with discolored bark. As the lesion gets bigger, it begins to crack around the edges and the tree will look like it has been burned.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Small mammals might discover your newly planted apple trees in winter and chew on the young bark. This can be prevented by wrapping the trunk with plastic tree guards or putting a hardware cloth cage around the trunks. Plastic spiral tree guards are easy to use and prevent voles and rabbits from feeding on the bark.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Winter injury is caused when a tree's bark temperature gets above freezing and water in the tissues under the bark becomes liquid and begins to flow through the cells. When the sun goes down or behind a cloud, the liquid water suddenly freezes, damaging the cells and sometimes killing the tissue on one side of the trunk.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Fruits on the outside of the tree are more susceptible to sunburn than fruits on the inside of the tree, because they are not being shaded by as many leaves. However, they also generally ripen faster.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Abe Coley wrote:Something you might try is to save up a bunch of apple seeds from whatever apples you eat, then grow those out for a year and select for hybrid vigor. Last year I had a seedling of a braeburn apple that was nearly 1 inch caliper and over 3 feet tall at the end of its first growing season, whereas most of the other apple seedlings were in the 1/2 inch range at the end of their first season.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Kris Winter wrote:How did all of your seedlings do, those who planted seeds? One of the junior members of my team is planning an apple garden for the slopes of our swamp. He would really like to find a tree that can grow to be large enough to climb in the next few years, but he is also interested in growing a tree with strong lateral limbs for a nice "ladder" effect, and hoping for apples on top of it, so we are following this post!</div><div></div><div></div><div>Philip Heinemeyer wrote:Malus sieversii is thought certainly to be able to grow older than malus domestica and trees exceeding 30m height were found. But that doesnt mean they will all necessarily get very tall. Often it depends on the soil and location. Somewhere in England there are Oak trees over 50 meters tall while they usually dont grow taller than 30 meters. They just happen to grow in an ideal location with ideal soil.</div><div></div><div> Maybe the taller malus sieversii trees are found in one area of their repartition? I am no expert on malus sieversii. The test plantation is in geneva, new York i think even though i seem to remember something about Colorado. Maybe there is several. Going there would enable one to see whether there are differences in vigour and tree height.</div><div></div><div> I do think that they generally get taller than malus domestica.</div><div></div><div></div><div>We both have a keen eye for detail and are dedicated to creating beautiful, timeless images that tell the story of your wedding day.
