How do you plant apples in Animal Crossing City Folk for the Wii? -

I have Animal Crossings City Folk for the Wii and I just got it. I have been shaking off apples from the trees in my town to earn money, but lately i have noticed that the apple trees seem to be dwindling. is there any way to plant apples? we have the shovel, but each time we drop an apple near a hole it gets thrown away from the hole. Thank you for your help!|::::|get the shovel, dig a hole, go bak into pockets, click on the apple, click on quot;buryquot;, and a little plant will pop up, it takes 4 days (including day you plant it) to grow and it will have apples on it :)|::::|Go to nooks shop and buy a shovel and some apple seeds. go to your inventory and wear the shovel then go anywhere you want to plant the apple tree. dig a hole, and plant the apple seeds. i m pretty sure you don t have to dig a hole, i didn t have to dig a hole when i planted my plants or trees.|::::|You have to buy a shovel from tom nooks and then dig a hole the press the - button on the remote, click the apple then choose burry and after 1 or 2 days a tree will start to grow but if you water the hole/tree with a watering can it grows faster! :)|::::|You dig the hole, and try not to move when you plant the tree. there should be a bury or bury in ground option when you are at the correct spot to plant one.
