apple trees
Welcome to Apple Trees, this site is fanatical about anything to do with apples and apple trees. Our fanaticism started when we planted our dwarf apple tree in our small back garden. Gradually, this became an obsession and to cut a long story short, we bought some land and started our own orchard.


To say our apple trees are our passion would be an understatement. We will be gradually adding lots of photos and apple trees articles, including growing apple tree guides, guide on dwarf apples trees, apple recipes, apple tree growing and much more!

You will be able to buy apple trees here also! Apple trees for sale around the UK will be listed, as will review guides and how to buy apple trees.


Have you grown peach trees from seed?

Apple Trees - Q&A

The latest Mother Earth News has an article on growing peaches from seeds taken out of locally grown peaches. They say to split the hull, take out the seed, then put it in damp soil in the fridge for one to three months until they begin to sprout roots. (That’s the extremely edited version of the directions.) They said that peaches actually self-sow very easily, but we’ve had peach pits in our compost bin for years which have never begun to break down or grow. Has anyone had luck growing peach trees from seed?

    I think you a little ‘confusi.In not splitting the first hole. Just plug the hole in the damp but not soggy peat. Then put it in the fridge, but not dry. Take in a few months and the plant in your giardino.Charlie correct. You will end up with who knows what. Peaches are usually started with Peach Pit Lovell. It’s a peach canning used beliefs. Then I jumped in fishing that you want as Red Haven, etc. You take a gem and place it on Lovell rootstock and grow. It’s a lot of work. That is why so many farms can get for the trees.

    I certainly wouldn’t argue with Carl about how to grow a peach tree from seed but I would say that the peaches you eventually will very probably not be anything like the peach the seed came from because peaches you buy at the store are from hybrids and usually don’t grow true from seed. I’m not tell you not to try, just be aware of what you might get.
