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.

   Maybe if it is a really big pot. Usually with apples you need two trees for pollination. It doesn’t have to be the same variety but it has to flower at the same time. You need to have the tree in plenty of sun and you will need to make sure it gets enough water – sometimes a problem with pots. You will need to protect the pot in the winter from freezing.

   Protect a dormant apple tree from winter? Whatever! Most apple trees drop there leaves and therefore are not threatened by winter. (I really do wonder where these people get there knowledge).
   The best thing to do is to plant the tree in the biggest pot you can buy- therefore, you are able to transport (if necessary). Your best bet is to purchase one of those 1/2 oak barrels (wine). Use a good, well-drained and try not to overwater (soak once every 6-10 days).
   Hmmm red delicious!
