4-on-1 Antique Apple Tree

Not sure how old he was when he came to me, but he is 4 years old by my garden's reckoning. Last year only two of the grafts flowered and I got 6 wizened inedible apples that didn't live to harvest time.
I've had serious canker fungus and cedar spot issues. This winter/spring we treated consistently with copper. This spring, I have a full tree of blooms--all four grafts. I have hope.

it is 4 years old and doing great, produced 6 apples last year.

I have never ordered a tree or any sort of plant online, so at first I felt skeptical. Especially after I received the tree in the mail, it was more like a $50 twig. I followed all the directions and cared for my little "stick in the ground" wondering if it was even alive. After a few weeks it finally sprouted a leaf! That was a very exciting moment for me. Now, a year later, the twig looks like a healthy little tree. It's doubled if not tripled in size and has several branches full of leaves. It even survived a late freeze. I am very pleased with my purchase and plan to order a few more trees.

I loved the thought of different types of apples all on 1 tree. Planted this last year and so far this spring it is doing an awesome job and looks very healthy. Not sure when I should be getting fruit but will be excited whenever they come!

This came as a bare-root "twig," about 2 1/2-3' long, with a couple of other twigs grafted onto it. Eleven months later, it is between 6 1/2-7' tall and fully leafed, with any number of branches, and the trunk is already a good 1 1/2" thick. It is unbelievably sturdy - we've never had to stake it like some of the other trees we've planted, and although it said the tree likely wouldn't fruit for 3-4 years, it had a dozen or so blossoms on it this spring. Can't wait to see how they turn out!

Even though I was delayed in planting my apple tree, it did not seem to be affected; it sprouted leaves very quickly.

I Live in zone 4, it survived our cold winter and all the limbs are alive this spring. :)

The shipping was quicker than expected, and the tree was very healthy! It almost immediately sprouted leaves, and is still growing strong a year? later. Amazing.

This is the second year for my 4 on 1 Antique Apple. All four grafts are healthy and have blossoms. I am very pleased with the bare root tree and look forward to having apples in a year or two.

This is the second summer with the 4 in one and two of the types had blossoms at the same time as also some of our other trees this spring but nothing pollinated. We had a cold spring and there was little insect activity and no bees to be seen at the time. Hoping for better luck next year!
