Default soaking tree roots

i'm planting a small apple and a small tree pear tree tomorrow.
ive read that soaking the roots in a bucket of water overnight
is advisable. is this true? i thought roots weren't meant
to sit in water!


This might be a silly question, but is there another apple tree
nearby, to act as a cross-pollinator?

If not, you probably won't get any fruit on your apple tree.
