Record 2 1994-03-19

English

Subject field(s)
  • Culture of Fruit Trees
CONT

Fruit trees generally do not set fruit well unless pollinizing trees are provided. For fruit to set, the trees must bloom and the flowers must be fertilized by pollen. Only a few cultivars are self-fertile, that is, capable of fertilizing the ovaries of their own flowers with their own pollen. Most are self-sterile and must have pollen from another cultivar for fertilization to take place. Some are partly self-fertile and set a few fruits, but compatible pollinizers are needed to get good yields.

French
