One way to avoid dropped fruit
is to plant only dwarf or semi-dwarf trees. These two apple trees are
perfect because they are semi-dwarf, and resistant to cedar rust,
which is a huge problem around here. They are good pollinators for
each other, and the apples ripen 3-4 weeks apart.
How does having semi-dwarf trees avoid dropped fruit?
People can reach to pick the fruit before it falls.
