Select your primary variety to find compatible cross-pollinators with overlapping bloom windows. Covers apples, pears, plums, and pawpaws — calibrated for the Southeast climate.
Bloom Window
Bloom timing in the Upstate SC foothills can shift 1–2 weeks earlier than USDA reference data due to lower elevation and warmer springs. Always observe actual bloom timing on your site for 2–3 seasons before finalizing pollination planning.
Bloom group data is based on horticulturally accepted classifications calibrated for the Southeast. Compatibility follows the ±1 bloom group rule. Triploid varieties (sterile pollen) are flagged. Always verify compatibility with your local extension service or nursery before planting.
