Whether fresh eating or cooking, the granny smith apple’s sweet and tart taste ranks it among the most popular apple trees. Perfect for pies, caramel apples, cider making, or low-calorie nutritious snacking. This medium to large size apple has a firm and crisp texture that has made it an apple lover’s favorite. Granny Smith apples are one of the best-storing apples and can be kept up to six months given the proper storage. Grafted onto G.969 dwarfing rootstock.
Apples grow best with full sun in well drained average to loamy soil, but respond to enriched soil with better production. They prefer a slightly acidic soil pH in the range of 5.0 to 6.8. Plant in an area where there is good air circulation. Apple trees are not self-fruitful which means they require another apple tree of a different variety nearby to pollinate.
