Apple

  • Gala Apple- The Gala Apple is known for the large number of apples it produces. The golden apple will be ready to pick in early August and is a great apple choice for baking. If picked during their ripe period you'll enjoy its fantastic juicy-tart flavor. The Gala Apple tree will need another type of Apple tree to pollinate and produce apples. A good pick for a pollinator tree would be, Golden Delicious or Honeycrisp. 

Gala Apple

  • Honeycrisp Apple- Honeycrisp Apples are great pollinator tree for other apple trees, but you'll also need to have another apple tree nearby for the Honeycrisp Apple tree to produce apples. Honeycrisp Apples are bright red with yellow markings making for a pretty site in September when the apples can be picked from the tree and enjoyed for its juicy sweet-tart flavor.

Honeycrisp

  • Red Fuji- Medium to large in size with a light red-yellow mixed appearance. Its taste is juicy and crisp with a creamy white flesh. The sweet flavor can add a honey and citrus taste to your mouth. Fuji apples are often used to make jams and strudel or are great for pairing with sharp cheddar cheese. You'll need a pollinator close by and can expect to harvest the apples in late October.

Important Note: When fruit trees need pollinators that means you'll need another tree of the same kind but different species in order for the tree to pollinate and produce fruits. It will normally take 2-3 years for a fruit tree of any kind to start producing fruit after being transplanted.
