Almond Trees

Choosing the Right Almond Trees

Almonds are closely related to peaches and bloom early, which makes frost risk one of the biggest decisions. They are best where spring weather is settled enough for flowers to survive.

Plant in full sun with excellent drainage and airflow. Some almonds need a pollination partner, and all benefit from dry conditions during bloom and harvest.
