Mixing Fruit Trees?

16 years ago

Hi everyone!

I have 4 apple trees, one peach tree, and one pear tree arriving tomorrow to plant in an orchard/meadow. They are joining a peach and pear tree that are already there. They are all going into about a 1/4 acre area (that's my best guess).

Should I plant all the apple trees together, and the peach by the existing peach tree for better pollination? Or, does it not matter in this small of an area? I would think that even the ones furthest away from each other won't be more than 20-25 ft.

Thanks in advance!
