To learn how to grow fruit trees in Animal Crossing: Pocket Camp, you need a shovel, a crate of fruit, and some open space. Dig a hole in a corner of the area, select a fruit, and cover it with the shovel. If you don’t follow these steps correctly, your fruit won’t grow. Thankfully, the game makes this process really easy.

Can be planted in a player’s town
If you’ve played the Animal Crossing series, you’ll know that trees and bushes can be planted in town. Planting flowers will enhance your town and attract new neighbors, business, and more. Savvy players will know where to plant flowers and breed new varieties to create beautiful flower gardens. The process of gardening can be confusing, but it’s easy to get the hang of it once you’ve mastered the basics.
Trees are important for two reasons: they can hide bugs and produce Bells, and they can be useful to your town. Depending on the type of tree, you can sell some fruits in exchange for Bells and other items. However, trees can be a hindrance to running and may hinder your progress in the game. While trees can be annoying, they are necessary for obtaining Perfect Town Status. You can also find certain bugs only on trees, which are essential to completing the Museum and getting the Golden Net.
Can be divided with a fence
When planning to plant a fruit tree, you should first make scale drawings of the design so you will know exactly how many to plant and how much space they will need. You should also draw a plan to refer to during pruning. Once you’ve mapped out your design, you should then choose where you want to plant your trees. Which wall will provide the best sunlight for growing fruit trees? If possible, choose one that faces the south or east.
You can plant fruit trees in the fall, but if your climate is particularly severe, you may want to wait until spring to plant them. Fruit trees can be trained into fans, espaliers, or single-stemmed cordons, and are best placed facing south. If you have a small space, consider planting a few different types of fruit trees. You’ll want a sunny surface, as the warm light from the sun will help them ripen.
Can be planted near buildings
Although trees can be planted next to buildings, the placement of the plant should be carefully planned. South-facing walls provide a microclimate that is ideal for growing fruit trees, especially espalier varieties. Plants should be planted at least 20cm (8 inches) from the wall, as the roots can spread further than the tree’s crown. In addition, planting trees closer to the walls will reduce root problems.
Generally, trees should not be planted near the foundation of a building, although some exceptions can be made for smaller trees or those that produce flowers and fruit. Slow-growing trees are classified as safe for this purpose, because they require less food and water. Proliferating trees suck water from the soil, which then dries. Soil with high percentage of clay or loam can dries out and be unsafe for planting.
Can be planted near water
Before planting your fruit trees, consider where you will put them. Most fruit trees like well-draining soil, enriched with organic matter. Avoid planting your trees near water, which may flood regularly. Also, avoid planting them on higher ground, which dries out quickly. Avoid planting fruit trees next to large buildings and structures, as their roofs can funnel icy winds onto the trees below. These winds can snap the branches of your fruit trees.
When planting fruit trees, remember to add soil to the soil so that the roots can grow. If the hole is too shallow, the tree roots will not grow properly. During this time, you will have to water the tree once or twice a week. However, if it gets too hot or dry, you can increase the frequency of watering. Once the tree has settled, watering it regularly will prevent rotting and disease.
