How to Grow and Care for Your Tree

  • Sun & Soil: Most of these fruit trees prefer full sun and well-drained, nutrient-rich soil.

  • Planting: Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and backfill with loose, organic soil for healthy root growth.

  • Watering: Water deeply twice a week during the first few months, then reduce frequency once the tree is established. Trees in hot, dry areas may need more.

  • Fertilizing: Apply our Fersol Granular Fertilizer 8-3-9 with Micronutrients during spring and summer to encourage strong growth and fruiting.

  • Frost Protection: In cooler areas, protect young trees by covering them on cold nights or moving container trees into a sheltered space.

  • Long-Term Care: With proper sunlight, watering, and maintenance, your tree can produce harvests for many years.
