Apple Pollination

Skinny apples, lopsided apples, or no apples despite lots of blossoms? These are pollination issues, and I'll help you sort it out. Apple pollination explained, including blossom functions and pollinators.

We are in Houston Texas we have a 3 in 1 Apple tree that give us lots of apples . We have Fuji tree that wasn’t grafted has given us not even one. We bought a 2 in one which is grafted with a Anna and Fuji Apple we have our hopes up high.We have several fruit trees and we are excited but we have lost several citrus and avocado trees to winter climates 😞 we will keep an eye out for your great videos keep teaching up we are here for it! Stay blessed 🙏🏼

Great video! Just moved to Chino Hills from Illinois (zone 5) and am trying to learn low-chill varieties and pollination! Nice to be your neighbor.

[@ginnyp7484]

Thank you, Kevin, for your informative video. It was entertaining as well!!

[@KathrynFann-pi9vx]

Thank you

This was very interesting.
We are lucky, the native bees we have, tend to go after the pollen, so less worried about the honey bees. The best being the Blue Banded Bee, which seems to do the same as your bumblebee. But what is interesting is you answered a question about why our trees flower over a month rather than all at once. So again the unique climate we have is affecting the trees. I am in Melbourne, right on top of Mornington Pennuslar to be exact, we have temps that go close to 0C and have chill hours over 1000+ thanks to the water around, and yet during spring are warm enough to trigger the month-long bloom.
To give some people an idea, I have high bush blueberries planted under a mango tree lol

I am Trinidad 🇹🇹 I bought king david and lady William apple plants a few years ago. This week the king david flowered while lady while has been flowering 2yrs. So hopeful we will have apples this year

[@BarneyGimble]

Some apples require " chill hours" to bear fruit .
Do your trees go dormant and drop their leaves?

[@shankarthakur1]

Excellent video. Thanks a lot for sharing .

[@doihavetohaveachannel8289]

Thank you, that was super! My trees bloom at slightly different times . My first one is just loaded with blossoms but the other two...nothing. I will see if I can borrow a branch from someone. From Canada

Very informative! I have Jonagold, what pollinators would you recommend?
Thank you from the UK.

[@ndeyatieyab3312]

Thanks for the education. From Nigeria I am trying hard to grow warm climate Apple. So now I have managed to get one in its second year. Unfortunately i don't know what variety it is. O If my one apple tree can't polinate what should I do?

[@pocahontaspirit5162]

Which apple varieties have the pollen "mixer" to distribute pollen to all the ovaries?

[@theladybugco]

What is the apple tree that bears flowers the same time as Red love apples?

[@GONZOFAM7]

I have a beautiful early harvest apple tree. It's April 14 and it's blooming. Never get fruit, so I need to find a mate. We don't have other apple trees in our neighborhood. Can pollen be purchased? I'm in Bloomington, IN.

[@videoworks7731]
