Sunlight
Red Delicious Apples thrive in full sun, so make sure you plant in a spot that receives at least 6 hours of direct sunlight each day.
Watering
Water regularly each week when the soil gets dry 2-3 inches down. Make sure to water more often if the tree is potted or there is a period of drought.
Fertilizing
Follow label instructions on an apple-specific fertilizer, usually applying several times from April until August.
Grow Delicious Fruit Without the Wait
Why Red Delicious Apple Trees?
For one, it’s America’s favorite apple. The Red Delicious is widely grown because of its delicious flavor, fast and easy growth, as well as its adaptability to a variety of soil types.
That’s right: America's favorite snacking apple is low-maintenance and ultra-productive, too.
Why Fast-Growing-Trees.com is Better
Our Red Delicious Trees are in a league of their own because we plant, monitor and nurture them well from day one. Because we’ve grafted our varieties from proven mother stock, you get a consistent, high-quality performer that provides fruit in just one year. We even give your apple tree one final pruning before shipping at no additional cost to you. This process also allows the tree to remain "dwarfed," which makes harvesting a breeze!
And though you do need a pollinator to ensure your Red Delicious performs, we have the perfect pairing: Our Granny Smith Apple Tree. Another low-maintenance variety that offers the key for healthy, hearty, heavy fruit production.
Looking for a heavy performer of your own? Look no further – order your own Red Delicious Apple Tree today, before they’re gone!
