Planting Bare Root Apple Trees in Pots | Fruit Tree Container Garden

Hi everyone.
In this video I'll show you how I go about Planting bare root apple trees in pots, I'll talk about my potting soil mix and explain along the way.
You can plant any bare root fruit trees in pots as long as the container is big enough and you keep them well pruned each year.
Fruit trees are fun and easy to grow & whether you a vegetable garden or just a balcony or patio you can still grow your own food.
Hope you enjoy today's video.
Thanks for watching

I have just bought a gala apple tree rootstock m26 it came in a 5 litre pot.i intend to plant it in a much larger pot and was wondering if i have to shake off the soil from smaller pot or just plant it with soil and all!thanks

Cool Kit!🙂 I always wondered if one can grow a standard apple tree in a pot. I always learn something new from you. I just may have to add a couple of apple trees to my container garden.🙂 Your channel is very inspiring. Thanks!👍

Helpful, thanks!

Did you prune that after potting? I'm waiting on my first m26 James grieve tree arriving for pot growing, and a fiesta apple tree

[@GrowWithKit]

Hi, no I didn’t prune anything other than dead branches. I gave it a little prune this year just to keep it small. Good luck with your apple trees.

[@annettee574]

Did your tree bear any apples?

Hi I like your video and I just received a bare root crab apple tree today in the mail and it has not went dormant yet so I'm not sure if I'm supposed to put it in a pot I know I'm supposed to separate the roots and let it be in water for overnight but I'm wanting to put it in a pot so it still has leaves on it it has not went dormant can I still put it in a pot thank you for the information it means a lot to me

[@joycecapes4693]

I forgot to say I am from Northern California and right now we have 103°, so I'm not sure what to do with the bare root Grab Apple Tree if you have any suggestions I appreciate it thank you so much

[@GrowWithKit]

Yes you can put it in a pot but keep it out of hot sun for a couple of weeks, a bright but mostly shaded area. Once it grown a little & is happy in its pot it should be fine with the heat & sun. Keep it well watered.

No pruning?

[@Jonnie_Rich]

[@GrowWithKit]

The apple tree has 2 apples on it this year, didn’t get anything last year.

[@Jonnie_Rich]

@@GrowWithKit what kind of apple isit

[@GrowWithKit]

‘Lord Lambourne’ it’s an old English variety.

[@Jonnie_Rich]

@@GrowWithKit what kind of compost or fertilizer do you use for a potted apple tree?

[@gurvinderkaur5526]

Do we have to do hole in the pot

[@GrowWithKit]

Hi, yes the drainage hole is essential, roots will rot if water sits in the pot.
