An apple tree grows from a little seed in the ground to a big tree. Apple trees need lots of sunlight and water to grow.<\/p>\n

The apple tree grows by putting down roots into the ground for stability and taking in nutrients and water from the soil. The tree also needs sunlight to produce food for itself through photosynthesis.<\/p>\n

How do apples grow step by step? <\/h2>\n

Apple seeds will only start to grow when they are planted in soil and given sunlight. If you want to grow an apple tree from seed, you will need to plant the seeds in soil and give them plenty of sunlight. The apple tree will eventually produce apples that you can eat.<\/p>\n

Standard or full-sized trees can take six years to bear their first fruit, whereas semi-dwarf and dwarf apple trees can produce full-sized apples in about three years. Semi-dwarf and dwarf apple trees are therefore a better option if you want to start harvesting apples sooner.<\/p>\n

Apple trees are covered in apple blossoms in early May. In order for the blossoms to become apples, they must be cross-pollinated. This means that the pollen must travel from one flower to another before fertilization can occur.<\/p>\n

Apple trees in warmer climates with shorter and mild winters will bloom earlier than those in cooler climates with longer and harsher winters. For example, apple trees in western North Carolina will generally bloom in mid-April, whereas apple trees in Minnesota do not bloom until a month later, generally in mid-May.<\/p>\n

How much water do apple trees need? <\/h2>\n

Apple trees need a consistent supply of water to produce healthy fruit. Without enough water, the tree will produce small, misshapen apples. Too much water can also be detrimental, causing the fruit to split open. The best way to water an apple tree is to give it a deep soaking once a week.<\/p>\n

While the average healthy and well cared apple tree can live from 50 to 80 years, there are some striking exceptions to this rule. Some apple trees have been reported to live for more than a century. An apple tree rarely produces many fruits after its 50th year of age.<\/p>\n

Apple trees typically produce a good crop every year, but some, especially ‘Honeycrisp’, may produce a massive amount of fruit one year, but practically nothing the following year. This two-year pattern may continue over time, even when weather conditions vary.<\/p>\n

Apple flowers are bisexual, meaning they have both male and female reproductive parts. The flowers have five stigmas and styles, and numerous stamens. The stigmas and styles are the female reproductive parts, while the stamens are the male reproductive parts. Pollination is required for fertilization to occur.<\/p>\n

Why does my apple tree have flowers but no fruit <\/h3>\n

If you have an apple tree that is flowering but not setting fruit, the lack of fruit may be due to poor pollination. Apples are self-unfruitful, which means that they need to be pollinated by another apple tree in order to produce fruit. Two different flowering apple trees (cultivars) need to be located within 50 to 100 feet of one another to insure pollination and fruit set.<\/p>\n

Apple trees typically bloom with pink flowers between mid-April and mid-May. This is after the tree has met a certain number of required hours of chill during winter dormancy. The required hours of chill can amount to between 500 to 1,000 hours, depending on the apple cultivar.
