Nice tree, but a bit small when it arrived. It looked very good going into winter. I think it will really take off this spring!

Although my zipcode is 37727, I live in the mountain area with an elevation of around 1950 to 2000 ft. Will a higher elevation have any effect on a Fugi apple tree?
Yes, your higher elevation (1,950–2,000 ft) can impact the growth and fruiting of a Fuji apple tree in several ways:
Cooler Temperatures – Higher elevations tend to have cooler temperatures, which can extend dormancy and delay bloom time. This can be beneficial in preventing late frost damage but may also shorten the growing season, which Fuji needs for proper ripening.
Chill Hours – Fuji apples require between 300 and 600 chill hours (depending on the variety). Your elevation may increase your chill hours, which is good for fruit set, but if temperatures drop too much in late spring, blossoms could be at risk of frost damage.
Wind Exposure – Mountainous areas often experience stronger winds, which can stress young trees and cause fruit drop. Consider planting in a protected location or using windbreaks.
Soil Drainage – Mountainous soils tend to be well-draining, which is great for apple trees, but make sure the soil retains enough moisture during dry periods.
Growing Season Length – Fuji apples have a long growing season (about 160–180 days) to fully ripen. At higher elevations, cooler summers might slow fruit ripening, so consider a warmer microclimate (such as a south-facing slope) to help.
Will a red Fuji tree pollinate a golden delicious?
Golden delicious is self pollinating and does not require another tree to bear fruit. The Golden will pollinate the Fuji.
I have a wine sap tree will Fuji pollinate ?
It would depend on which variety of Fuji you are wanting as the winesap has an early to Mid season bloom time. As long as you find variaties with the same bloom time they will pollinate one another.
Will this courtland Apple pollinate a Myra Fuji red ?
Yes - they should overlap in bloom time to pollinate each other.
Will a Jon-A-Red apple tree pollenate a Myra Red Fuji tree?
Yes they are both Mid season bloomers.
I would like to try espaliering apple trees with myra red fuji and golden delicious. Do I need specify that when ordering so the plants sent to me have the best 'beginning shape'?
Short answer is: No you do not need to specify at time of ordering. You can espalier practically any fruit tree, including this tree. The dwarf size is the easiest to espalier.

i have honeycrisp and mutsu apple trees. are these good pollinators for myra or aztek apples? Gerry
The Mutsiu will be a good pollinator as it is a Mid season bloomer as well.
will the Myra fuji dwarf polinate with a standard honeycrisp and a red delicious ?
For proper pollination you'll want to pair up apple trees that are in bloom at the same time. The Myra Red Fuji Apple is a mid season bloomer. The Honeycrisp and Starkrimson® Red Delicious Apple are mid season bloomers too.
Is Golden Delicious a good pollinator for this?
Hello Philip, Yes, this variety will cross pollinate with the Golden Delicious Apple.

Healthy little tree
So far so good. Though I think the real test will be if this tree survives the winter. I think it will, it still looks healthy and the leaves are still haning on even though the temps have been falling below freezing just about every night.

Great product delivered in healthy shape, that has thrived in a very heavy clay northern SC environment
Tree is growing like crazy. Healthy and upright. The main leader is at least 6 feet high now and the diameter has increased as well. It is hard to believe I planted it this past spring. I dug out a very large, deep hole and mixed in a potting soil and other soils with the native clay it is in. This allowed good drainage down to below the trees roots. I believe this was very instrumental in the healthy growth rate.

Looking good now that temps aren't scorching!
First order arrived in poor condition. Dried to a crisp and had to be clipped down to 12" eventually within a few weeks (to prove it was dead for the claim) so I used my warranty option for another tree. After stabilizing and repotting the new tree seems to be doing very well in its semi temporary home for the next year, maybe two. After we have our landscaping concrete poured this Fuji apple tree will in the ground as one of the larger fruit trees on our modest property. If all goes well it will become our fruiting shade tree!

Stark Brothers sells superior apple trees to be proud of.
My potted Myra Red Fuji has tiny trunk diameter but is healthy and growing. I prefer large diameter bare rooted trees but only potted was available. Nearly all my 19 Stark apple trees fruited second year. This one will probably take an extra year or two.

Too soon to review!
Impossible to give an accurate review at the time. Was ordered in Sept of 2023, received and planted by Nov 2023 and it is now only Feb of 2024. Hasn't has a chance to do anything yet! My first hope is that it will survive the winter and bud out in the spring!
It's my name!
Early for fuji
