Pink Lady Apple Tree (forum)

Raj starts with ...
Hi
I bought a pink lady apple tree about 2 years ago. It did flower but there was no fruit. The person who sold the tree never told me I needed 2 apple trees to cross polinate. Can you please tell me which variety of apple tree I can use to cross polinate the Pink lady tree with?(a dwarf variety if possible) Also I wanted to move the current tree to another location where it is possible for me to plant two trees side by side. When is the best time to relocate the apple tree?
I will be very greateful for your help.

You don't need two trees. It is semi self fertile. I attacked my flowers with cotton buds and had apples in it's first year! You could try that before spending money on a tree you don't want and stressing the pink lady by moving it.

Can you please tell me how to use cotton bud for pollination. Do you rub the cotton bud on each flower?
