Fruit & harvest
Tri-state harvest
Late season, usually October; the exact Fuji strain affects timing.
First bearing
About 3–7 years after planting, depending strongly on rootstock (dwarf trees are usually earlier).
Harvest
Late summer–fall, depending on cultivar and season
Pollination
Most apples need pollen from a different, compatible apple cultivar that blooms at the same time. Ask us about pairings.
Growing & care
Rootstock & size
For grafted fruit trees, mature size and time to fruit depend on the rootstock as well as pruning. Check the individual tree tag when selecting planting space.
Size & rootstock
Rootstock controls mature size, spacing and time to first crop. Match the nursery tree’s rootstock to your available space before planting.

Plant in full sun. Prune during dormancy for an open, manageable canopy. Thin an overly heavy fruit set so remaining apples have room to develop.
