1. Planting: Plant your Sweet Treat™ Apple tree in well-draining soil in a location that receives full sunlight. Ensure proper spacing, and water consistently during the growing season for a healthy and bountiful harvest.
If you're planting in a container, choose a pot (with drainage holes) that's about twice the width of your tree's shipped container. Use organic soil, place your tree, and backfill. Water to settle the roots after you've planted your tree.
2. Watering: Water apple trees deeply and regularly, especially during dry spells, ensuring that the soil remains consistently moist but not waterlogged. Mulch around the base to retain moisture and promote optimal growth.
3. Fertilizing: Fertilize in early spring with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer according to package instructions. Repeat the application in late spring or early summer to support healthy growth.
4. Pruning: Once your tree has become established and is starting to bear fruit, it will need some periodic, moderate pruning. Only prune the tree during times of dormancy, making sure to remove any vigorous, upright stems and weak, damaged, or dead branches.
5. Pollination: Fruit Snacks® Sweet Treat™ Columnar Apples are not self-pollinating. You will need to plant another variety to achieve fruiting. Below are the most effective pollinators available for your area:
