Fruit Tree Pollination Chart Garden Talk Fruit Tree “Where People who Love fresh Fruit, Love to Shop!” ™ Pollination Chart Fruit treeS producE better when planted in pairs. Many trees are self fruitful or self pollinating, but even these trees product better crops when planted withing 100 feet of a similar tree. Cross pollination is essencial for apples, pears, cherry and plums. The same variety of tree will not pollinate itself, but requires a different variety to pollinate with. Example, Fuji apple will not pollinate another Fuji apple, a Comice pear will not pollinate another Comice pear and so on. Likewise, other fruit tree varieties will not pollinate geneticly different fruits. Apples only pollinate apples, pears only pollinate pears, plums only pollinate plums and so on. It is best to plant a completely different variety of tree, but still in the same fruiting specie. These chart is meant to claify the pollination confusion. Self Fruitful or Self-Pollinating - Cross Pollination is not essential, but does improve the production on these trees. The following trees will set some fruit by themselves. Apricots, European Plums such as Damon & Green Gage, Italian & Stanley Prunes, Tart Cherries such as Montmorency and Lapin, Peaches, Persimmon, Figs & Nectorines. Cross Pollination required - Cross pollination from one or more compatible cultivars is essential for Apples, Pears, most Sweet Cherries and Japanese Plums. Pollen is primarily transfered by honeybees so trees should be no more than 100 feet apart. Below are Cross Pollination Charts for Apples, Pears, Cherries and Plums.

  • Hanson's Garden Village Edible Fruit Trees
    Hanson’s Garden Village Edible Fruit Trees *** = Available in Bare Root for 2020 All Fruit Trees Available in Pots, Except Where Noted APPLE TREES Apple trees are not self fertile and must have a pollination partner of a different variety of apple that has the same or overlapping bloom period. Apple trees are classified as having either early, mid or late bloom periods. An early bloom apple tree can be pollinated by a mid bloom tree but not a late bloom tree. A mid bloom period apple could be used to pollinate either an early or late bloom period apple tree. Do not combine a late bloomer with an early bloom period apple. Apple trees are available in two sizes: 1) Standard – mature size 20’-25’ in height and 25’-30’ width 2) Semi-Dwarf (S-M7) – mature size 12’-15’ in height and 15’-18’ width —————————————————————–EARLY BLOOM—————————————————————— Hazen (Malus ‘Hazen’): Standard (Natural semi-dwarf). Fruit large and dark red. Flesh green-yellow, juicy. Ripens in late August. Flavor is sweet but mild, pleasant for eating, cooking and as a dessert apple. An annual bearer. Short storage life. Hardy variety. Does very well without spraying. Resistant to fire blight. Zones 3-6. KinderKrisp (Malus ‘KinderKrisp’ PP25,453): S-M7 (Semi-Dwarf) & Standard. Exceptional flavor and crisp texture, much like its parent Honeycrisp, this early ripening variety features much smaller fruit. Perfect size for snacking or kid's lunches, with a good balance of sweet flavors and a crisp, juicy bite.

  • 1 Chapter 1: Introduction and Problem Statement Bees Are Critical to The
    1 Chapter 1: Introduction and Problem Statement Bees are critical to the stability and persistence of many ecosystems, and therefore, must be understood and protected (Allen-Wardell et al., 1998; Kearns, Inouye & Waser, 1998; Michener, 2000; Cane, 2001; Kremen, Williams & Thorp, 2002; LeBuhn, Droege & Carboni, in press). Their pollination services are responsible for global biodiversity and maintenance of human food supplies (Allen-Wardell et al., 1998; Kearns et al., 1998; Michener, 2000; Kremen et al., 2002). Over the past two decades, bees have received increased attention by the scientific community because of population declines (Allen-Wardell et al., 1998; Kearns et al., 1998). Scientific research has focused primarily on honey bee ( Apis mellifera ) declines because this species is the most commonly used pollinator in United States agriculture, but significant declines have also occurred in native bees (Kevan and Phillips, 2001; Allen-Wardell et al., 1998). The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) Bee Research Laboratory has charted a 25% decline in managed honey bee colonies since the 1980s (Greer, 1999). Estimates on native bee declines, on the other hand, are disputed and vary (Williams, Minckley & Silveira, 2001). Nonetheless, increased anthropogenic effects and exotic pests are impacting global bee populations (Kim, Williams & Kremen, 2006). The specific consequences of the bee population decline on our food supply and global biodiversity remain to be seen, but the effects will inevitably be negative (Allen- Wardell et al., 1998). Fears of food, economic and biological losses have provoked a surge of scientific literature that examines the associated problems. Recent advancements in geography and landscape ecology suggest that landscape composition and pattern are critical to population dynamics (Turner, Gardner & O’Neill, 2001).

  • Honey Bees and Climate Change
    Abstract of final report Honey Bees and Climate Change Prof. Dr. Frank-M. Chmielewski, Sophie Godow For the western honey bee (Apis mellifera), weather conditions (especially air temperature, but also global radiation, precipitation intensity and wind speed) and availability of nectar are, next to factors like breeding traits and colony health, essential in determining flight activity and with it for pollination and honey yield. Thus, climate changes could affect flight conditions for bees. In Hesse, an increase in the air temperature of 0.6 K was detected compared from the period 1951-1980 to 1981-2010 (HLNUG, 2016). Climate scenarios predict a further increase of 3.9 K on average for the period 2071-2100 compared to the reference period 1971-2000 (REKLIES, 2017). This study examines the impact of a changing climate on honey bee flight and honey yield. The model BIENE, developed by the German Weather Service (Deutscher Wetterdienst, DWD, FRIESLAND, 1998), allows the classification of hours according to their (weather-related) suitability for bee flight (none at all, bad, moderate, good) as well as the calculation of a measure of potential bee flight for freely chosen periods. This purely weather-driven model, however, was not suitable for the assessment of the bee flight during the whole year, because crucial parameters were omitted from the model, especially the phenology of honey plants. The effects of climatic changes of the last decades are clearly visible on the development of these plants, especially in spring. For example, the beginning fruit tree blossom (apple, sweet cherry, sour cherry, pear) in Germany since 1961 has advanced by about 3 days per decade.

  • Pollination Fast Facts
    Pollination Fast Facts What is pollination? Pollination is a vital stage in the life cycle of all flowering plants. When pollen is moved within a flower or carried from one flower to another of the same species it leads to fertilization. This transfer of pollen is necessary for healthy and productive native & agricultural ecosystems. • About 75% of all flowering plant species need the help of animals to move their heavy pollen grains from plant to plant for fertilization. • About 1,000 of all pollinators are vertebrates such as birds, bats, and small mammals. • Most pollinators (about 200,000 species) are beneficial insects such as flies, beetles, wasps, ants, butterflies, moths, and bees. Why are pollinators important? Pollinators are often keystone species, meaning that they are critical to an ecosystem. The work of pollinators ensures full harvests of crops and contributes to healthy plants everywhere. • An estimated 1/3 of all foods and beverages is delivered by pollinators. • In the U.S., pollination produces nearly $20 billion worth of products annually. How you can help. • Reduce your impact. Reduce or eliminate your pesticide use, increase green spaces, and minimize urbanization. Pollution and climate change affect pollinators, too! • Plant for pollinators. Create pollinator-friendly habitat with native flowering plants that supply pollinators with nectar, pollen, and homes. For information on what to plant in your area, download a free eco-regional guide online at www.pollinator.org. • Tell a friend. Educate your neighbors, schools, and community groups about the importance of pollinators. Host a dinner, a pollinated food cook-off or other event and invite your friends.

  • Brought to You By… POLLINATORS
    Brought to You By… POLLINATORS What is “Pollination” & What is a “Pollinator?” • The act of “pollination” occurs when pollen grains are moved between two flowers of the same species by wind or animals. Successful pollination results in the production of healthy fruit and fertile seeds, allowing plants to reproduce. Without pollinator visits to tomatoes and other fruit and vegetable plants in our gardens, we would have no produce! For more information: http://hiltonpond.org/ThisWeek031008.html • Almost 90% of all flowering plants rely on animal pollinators for fertilization, and about 200,000 species of animals act as pollinators. Of those, 1,000 are hummingbirds, bats, and small mammals such as mice. The rest are insects like beetles, bees, ants, wasps, butterflies and moths. See http://www.wildaboutgardening.org/en/attracting/section1/ Why Are Pollinators Important to Us? • Worldwide, approximately 1,000 plants grown for food, beverages, fibers, spices, and medicines need to be pollinated by animals in order to produce the goods on which we depend. • Foods and beverages produced with the help of pollinators include: apples, bananas, blueberries, chocolate, coffee, melons, peaches, potatoes, pumpkins, vanilla, almonds, and tequila. (Imagine a world without some of these things!) • In the United States, pollination by honeybees and other insects produces $40 billion worth of products annually! Did You Know? Bees -- can fly at about 7 miles per hour, and have to beat their wings 190 times per second to do it! Bees are constantly on the lookout for brightly-colored flowers with sweet scents. Bees tend to prefer flowers that they can walk on to sip nectar.
