Hi this is Peggy. Hope this information is helpful for you about your fruit trees. Can you plant different fruit trees next to each other?
Most varieties of peaches, nectarines, apricots and sour cherry trees do not require pollination from another tree. Many varieties of apple, sweet cherries, Asian pears and blueberries require another pollinating tree or bush. Trees in a neighboring yard may do the job.Dec 14, 2018

What do you want to plant? Companion planting can be important. In addition, spacing of the trees is crucial. They need to be spaced to account for mature height and width, otherwise you will have underdeveloped trees and you may loose some due to overcrowding and poor placement. Here are some sites to get you started.

Something that comes into play with assorted fruit trees is whether or not they are self-pollinators.
If they are, then no concern about needing compatible trees for cross pollination. On the other hand if you need to cross polinate, then you would need compatible trees. It should tell you on the tag with the tree which are cross pollinators and which are not. Best to you.
Raquel...l am no expert but my grandparents did groves for their fruit trees such as; apple..peach..plum. Those were the days..going yo the groves!
Hi Raquel, hope this helps you out, All types of fruit trees grow well together. Spacing for good canopy development, easy picking, good air circulation and size compatibility are important considerations in choosing fruit trees for the backyard orchard
