Compatible apple varieties are selected on the basis of bloom times and flowering groups which are the same as your variety or in an overlapping group.

Varieties which share the same parents, or are descended from your variety, or belong to the same genetic incompatibility group are excluded from the selection. Apple varieties which produce little or incompatible pollen are also excluded.

Please note our apple pollination checker is intended to be used as a guide only, and is by no means 100% accurate. The scientific data on the genetic relations between apple cultivars is incomplete, and many other factors affect successful pollination. Our article on the pollination of fruit trees gives more details of some of the factors involved in pollination.
