Thompson and Morgan Apple Malus Golden Delicious Plant Pot 5L

Golden Delicious' is a popular and versatile apple tree, ideally suited to UK gardens, particularly in milder areas. A reliable choice, this tree produces a generous crop of attractive golden-green apples, perfect both for sweet desserts and savoury dishes. Known for its ease of cultivation and excellent storage capabilities, 'Golden Delicious' is a must-have for any home orchard.
Whether you wish to bake a classic apple pie or enjoy a crisp, fresh snack, this tree provides the ideal fruit for all your culinary creations. While partially self-fertile, planting alongside another apple tree will encourage the heaviest crops.
Grown on semi-dwarf rootstock, 'Golden Delicious' remains a manageable size, making it perfect for small to medium-sized gardens. With the right care, your tree will begin cropping within two years, with peak yields expected within five. Its exceptional post-harvest storage means you can enjoy fresh apples well beyond the growing season.
How to grow: For optimal results, plant in a sheltered location with plenty of sunshine. Suitable for warmer regions of the UK; protect from late frosts. Water well after planting and during dry periods, ensuring the soil is not waterlogged. Mulch with well-rotted manure or compost in spring and feed during dry spells. Prefers average garden humidity; ensure good air circulation.
