Self-fertile apples

Most fruit trees need to be near to another tree of the same species (e.g. apple) that will be in flower at the same time, for pollination to occur. With self-fertile varieties, you can still expect a crop even without cross-pollination, so it’s a good choice if you suspect that there aren’t other fruit trees of the same species nearby.

In urban spaces there are usually plenty of other apple trees nearby, so you do not necessarily need a self-fertile variety.

Self-fertile trees will still produce a better crop if near to a pollination partner.
