Granny Smith Apple

Malus domestica 'Granny Smith'

• Low-chill variety perfect for our area
• One of the most popular apples in the United States
• Sweet, crisp, flavorful fruit
• A beautiful fruit tree with showy flowers

Initially from New Zealand, this apple thrives in our warmer climate. The fruit is medium-sized and prolific in numbers. Rated as the best apple for baking, Granny Smith apples are excellent to eat right off the tree too. In addition, all apples are known for providing multiple essential vitamins, fiber, and antioxidant qualities. Granny Smith apple trees are self-fruiting, so you only need one tree to enjoy these great apples from your own yard. Look for fruit ripening by late summer in most areas. 

Granny Smith apple trees are amazingly easy to grow. They enjoy full sun exposure (some afternoon shade is ok too) and once established, require only moderate watering for a fruit tree. Apple trees provide more than just nourishment. Granny Smith apple trees grow to an ideal medium to large size so they’re perfect in all landscapes. In addition, they can be used to provide moderate shade for a yard, not to mention the amazing apple blossoms you’ll get in Spring.
