Apple Trees Granny Smith

#7 gallon pot.

Granny Smith Apple Tree - Trees for cross pollination: Honeycrisp, Gala, & Pink Lady. Height: 12-15 ft, Width: 12-15 ft. Interest: Fruit in late September/early October. Granny Smith apples are world-famous for their crisp, tart flavor and bright green skin. This classic Australian variety was discovered in the 1860s by Maria Ann Smith, a gardener in New South Wales. Known for their firm texture and refreshing tang, Granny Smith apples are perfect for pies, sauces, salads, and fresh eating. Their bold, zesty taste pairs beautifully with sweet or savory recipes, and the apples store exceptionally well for later use.

Maintenance Tip:
Prune annually in late winter while dormant to shape the tree, remove dead or crossing branches, and encourage better fruit production. Thin developing fruit in early summer to improve size and prevent branch stress. Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring, maintain consistent watering during dry periods, and monitor for pests and disease throughout the growing season.
