HOW TO PLANT AND GROW RAYNER’S HARDY FRUIT TREES 
Below the Mason-Dixon Line fall is generally considered the best time to plant fruit trees, but in 
northern states there is too much danger of winter injury so spring planting is reeommended. We do 
not guarantee nursery stock planted in the fall in northern states. 
A hole should be dug that is slightly deeper and wider than the root system. Place fertile top soil 
in the bottom of the hole so that the upper roots will be about 2 in. below the surface. Next add more 
soil to fill in the hole, packing it firmly around the roots and adding water. Be sure to eliminate air 
pockets around the roots. Plant at least two varieties of most fruit for proper pollination. 
Apples, cherries, and pears should be pruned to a main stem with two or three side branches, while 
peaches should be cut back to a single stem about 2 ft. tall. Maintain a heavy mulch of sawdust or other 
organic matter around each tree and wrap the lower stem with fine-mesh wire if there is danger of rabbit 
injury. In early spring apply manure or complete fertilizer such as 10-6-4 or 8-8-8. Use % lb. on young 
trees and 3 to 4 Ibs. on older trees. Write for Rayner’s No. 16 Bulletin describing culture of fruit trees. 
Obtain spraying information from your State Agriculture Extension Service or County Agent.
