Why North Pole Apple Trees?
With an elegant columnar shape and a compact size, the North Pole Columnar Apple Tree gives you sweet, flavorful fruit and visual interest for any outdoor space.
The North Pole Columnar Apple is a narrow, vertical apple tree covered in deep-green foliage. With little branching, it continues growing upright, for a unique and eye-catching shape.
Spring brings fragrant white flowers, followed in late summer and fall by impressive clusters of glossy red fruit. These apples are sweet, crisp and fragrant - perfect for cider, applesauce, pies and snacking fresh off the tree.
Growing up to 10-12 feet tall and just 1-2 feet wide, the North Pole Columnar Apple tree makes a statement in any landscape - however, it performs just as well in containers on patios or balconies.
This tree can produce fruit in the first year, but will need an additional pollinator - pair with any other variety of apple tree for abundant fruit production.

Pollination Info
North Pole Columnar Apple Tree Pollination
North Pole Columnar Apple Trees are not self-fertile. You will need to plant another variety to achieve fruiting. Below are the most effective pollinators we have chosen for your area...
Planting & Care
1. Planting: Select an area with full sun (6 to 8 hours) and well-drained soil.
Then, select a pot that's about twice the width of your plant's shipped container. Select a well-draining, quality potting soil mix to fill the pot. Add soil to the bottom of the pot, place your tree, and fill the pot until there is about a 2-inch space from the rim to the top of the soil.
2. Watering: Water slowly when you irrigate the tree to ensure even moisturizing of the soil. When the tree is in a dormant state, only provide enough water to keep the soil slightly moistened. As soon as you see newer growth coming out of the tree, you can water whenever the top 2 inches of the soil feels dry.
3. Pruning: Once you have your tree potted and comfortable, prune the branches back at a 45-degree angle with a pair of clean shears.
