Apple ‘Granny Smith’ – Freshly Potted*
A medium, upright deciduous fruiting tree which requires pollination for fruit development. Apple Granny Smith produces long slender stems with oval deep green leaves which change colour in Autumn. Will require annual pruning once the foliage has dropped in Winter. This will encourage a stronger branching network, airflow through the canopy and better fruit quality. Produces medium to large rounded fruit with a lime-yellow skin. The flesh is a cream with a slight tinge of green. The fruit is firm and crisp, great keeping and very good when used in cooking. This is an ideal tree for large gardens, food gardens or as a feature tree. Grows best in humus-rich soil which is well-draining.
