Malus pumila 'Honeygold' 'Honeygold' Apple

A distinctively yellowish-green apple with good, sweet flavor, notably hardy, keeps well; eating apples are high maintenance and need a second pollinator; the perfect combination of accent and fruit tree, needs well-drained soil and full sun Honeygold Apple is a small tree that is commonly grown for its edible qualities. It produces large yellow round apples (which are botanically known as 'pomes') with hints of red and white flesh which are usually ready for picking from mid to late fall. The apples have a sweet taste and a crisp texture.

Malus pumila HONEYCRISP Edible apple cultivars do not grow particularly well on their own roots. As a result, apple varieties sold in commerce today have all been grafted onto rootstocks which, inter alia, control the size of the tree. Rootstocks are generally classified as follows (tree height in parenthesis): dwarf (8-10'), semi-dwarf (12-15') and standard (18-25' or more). All trees bear full-size fruit, however. Most trees sold today for the home apple grower are grafted onto dwarfing rootstocks (dwarf or semi-dwarf), resulting in trees which, in comparison to standard trees, are (1) easier to manage (spray, prune and harvest) and (2) produce fruit at an earlier age. Common Name: dwarf apple Type: Fruit Family: Rosaceae Zone: 4 to 7 Height: 8.00 to 10.00 feet Spread: 8.00 to 10.00 feet Bloom Time: April Bloom Description: Pinkish white Sun: Full sun Water: Medium Maintenance: High Suggested Use: Flowering Tree Flower: Showy, Fragrant, Good Cut Attracts: Birds, Hummingbirds, Butterflies Fruit: Showy, Edible Tolerate: Air PollutionGala Apple Malus sylvestris 'Gala' One of the most widely-grown apple varieties, the Gala matures to a bright overall red color, with bold red stripes over a yellow background.
