About the Blushing Delight™ Apple Tree

Light, sweet, crisp and juicy! Enjoy homegrown fruit with Blushing Delight™ Apple Tree, perfect for small gardens and edible landscaping. This compact Fruit Snacks™ columnar apple variety offers rapid growth and abundant yields within a few years post-planting.

Resilient to cold climates and boasting robust disease resistance, Blushing Delight™ serves as an ideal edible privacy hedge or eye-catching accent in larger containers. Planting two different apple tree varieties ensures optimal pollination, with most Fruit Snacks™ apples blooming mid-season, mutually aiding in this process.

Beyond their delectable taste, Blushing Delight™ contributes to landscape beauty, attracting bees with its stunning spring flowers. These flowers transform into delectable fruits in fall, offering both aesthetic and culinary pleasures. Their versatility in small spaces makes them excellent for hedges or container planting, catering to urban edible landscapers for easy harvest and visual appeal.

Welcome spring with delicate white blossoms, leading to the arrival of blushing red apples in autumn. These apples tantalize the taste buds with their delightful blend of sweetness, lightness, and flavor, perfect for snacking, baking, and more.
