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.


Is it safe to eat fruits from a fruit tree grown in herbicide laden soil?

Apple Trees - Q&A

The fruit tree is 4 feet from a tree stump. We tried to kill it with various stump killers (I don’t know the brand names or names of the chemicals). It did not die and I had to hire somebody to grind the stump. The mulch is still in the soil. The fruit tree will bear fruits soon. Will the fruits have the chemicals and are they harmful to health if we eat the fruits?

    I don’t think the toxins can be transferred that way, but I personally wouldn’t risk it.

    you must make the decision. processed foods you buy at the local supermarket can be just as unhealthy. do not add poison to the ground and the stump removed.

    If you soak and rinse the fruit and then store them in a plastic bag in the fridge for a few days, then they should be fine.
