Red & Gold Apple Tree Collection

These are the two apples that put Stark Bro’s on the map, and both are perfectly “Delicious!” No home orchard should be without these two classic apple trees. This time-tested, cold-hardy and productive pair will give you bushel upon bushel of colorful apples. No pollination worries: Golden Delicious is a self-pollinator, and will also pollinate the Red Delicious. They will ripen together in late September.

I recently planted 2 dwarf apple trees. Will it harm the trees if I plant a vegetable garden between and around them?
g3n3fi on Mar 27, 2016
BEST ANSWER: I have my vegetable garden surrounded by standard and semi dwarf peaches and apples and both the trees and the vegetables are doing great. It???s been this way for several years now.
I live in zone 4a, Can I plant a tree from zone 5 in my area?
JAY S on Oct 6, 2018
BEST ANSWER: If Zone 4 falls within the range of the zones recommended for a given variety, it will work in your area. For example, if a tree is zoned for 4-8, that will work. If it's zoned for 5-8, it will not.
Are both trees in the red and gold special collection # 29106 spur type?
Nola H on Mar 1, 2016
BEST ANSWER: The Starkrimson?? Red Delicious tree in this collection has a spur-bearing habit. The Stark?? Golden Delicious is semi-spur bearing and highly productive but, if you wanted a truly spur-bearing Golden Delicious, I'd recommend the one called Starkspur?? Golden Delicious instead.

Trees in the desert
I have an orchard that I have established over the years buying fruit trees from Stark Bros. They have been planted in the worst soil ever; alkali and clay. I put some soil conditioner in the holes before planting but can't improve all the dirt. Anyway, the trees are doing wonderful and we have had an overabundance of peaches, apples and pears this year. The new apple trees that I have planted are starting to make shade (a good thing when the temp is 104). I order my trees with confidence from Stark Bros. Sydney Peterson

New customer and fruit tree planter
I have never written a review for any company before. Ever. This is my first time planting fruit trees and recently ordered the golden and red delicious combo from StarkBros and a peach tree. I was hesitant since being a novice to bare root trees and when they arrived I was extremely nervous. I received my trees quickly after ordering and have them in the ground following the easy instructions, and now just barely a month later all 3 trees are looking wonderful and leafing already. I will buy more products from Stark in the future, without a doubt.

Three of four trees lived. The ones that came out are doing well. Also bought red maple and an almond tree. They are also doing well. Bought six trees total five lived.

Great tree
Trees always come packaged well. Once planted they sprout right out. The tree looks good and growing well. I would definitely recommend your trees!

Too soon to give good review
Trees are growing. Process is alittle slow because of our weather pattern. Trees look good but it this rate it may be a few years before any production

Thriving
this pair of young apples are going into their second season with me. They are thriving and appear to be well rooted.
My first Stark fruit trees were planted 31 years ago, and many have aged out. these are part of an ongoing replacement program.

Reduced shipping
I purchased apple trees last year and peach trees this year. This year you offered a reduced shipping and a sale and that it why I took advantage of it.

Young tree
I think I planted this last year or the year before. Can't wait to get some fruit. It did have blossoms on it several weeks ago so i am keeping my fingers crossed.
