View Full Planting & Care Instructions
Sunlight Honeycrisps need at least six hours of sunlight daily to thrive.
Watering Only provide enough water to keep the soil slightly moistened when your tree is in dormancy. As soon as you see newer growth emerging from the tree, you can water whenever the top 2 inches of the soil feels dry.
Fertilizing Feed your tree with 5-10-10 fertilizer per label instructions but only start after they begin growing steadily. We recommend spreading your fertilizer a few inches away from the tree’s trunk.
It’s Like Growing Dessert on a Tree!

Planting & Care
1. Planting: Plant in any area that receives 6 hours of direct sun each day. Well-drained soil is also important for your Honeycrisp. From there, dig a hole that’s twice the width of the root ball and just as deep. Then, place the plant, tamp down your soil and water to settle. Finally, mulch around the area to prevent weed growth.
2. Watering: Your Honeycrisp Apple will benefit from a regular watering each week. When the tree is in a dormant state, only provide enough water to keep the soil slightly moistened. As soon as you see newer growth emerging from the tree, you can water whenever the top 2 inches of the soil feels dry or in times of drought.
3. Pruning: Once your tree has become established and is starting to bear fruit, it will need some periodic, moderate pruning. Only prune the tree during times of dormancy, making sure to remove any vigorous, upright stems and weak, damaged or dead branches. Low-hanging, droopy branches should also be removed. Pruning aids production, so it’s great for your tree!
