Why did you choose this?

Pollinates with Stark GrandGala

It is supposed to be hardy to grow in the South.

To pollinate HoneyCrisp apples.

cross polinator and good for applesauce flavor

Will a Fuji pollinate with a golden delicious apple?

Yes, Golden Delicious is an excellent choice for pollinating Fuji apple trees!

Will a Fuji pollinate a honeycrisp apple tree and will a fuji survive in Omaha, Nebraska?

Yes they will pollinate together as the bloom times are both Mid- late season bloomers.

I live in zone 6a and looking for apples and pear trees to espalier. Is it now middle of May -- can I still do this now or wait for next spring? I would also appreciate your recommendation on the best variety. Thank you!

You can espalier practically any fruit tree. The dwarf size is the easiest to espalier. Our detailed article can be found here: //www.starkbros.com/growing-guide/article/espalier-fruit-treesOur detailed article can be found here: //www.starkbros.com/growing-guide/article/espalier-fruit-trees

Because weather and soil conditions vary so much from year to year and even within your zone, it's best to think of your planting time as a range of favorable conditions instead of an exact time.

You can plant new plants and trees:
1) when the ground is not frozen.
2) when daytime temperatures are above freezing (32ºF) and below 90ºF.
3) when extreme weather (blizzard, hail, torrential rain, etc.) is not in the forecast. Be sure to keep plants watered if you're transplanting in warm and/or dry weather.

If you have any further questions please don't hesitate to reach back out to us. Have a great day!

How long does it take to produce fruit on a dwarf tree?

We appreciate you reaching out to us. You can find the years-to-bear information in the Characteristics section, near the top of the page, underneath the description. This tree takes 2-5 years to bear.

Do you have this tree in a dwarf variety?

The Stark® Super Red Fuji Apple is only available in a semi-dwarf at this time.

Are Fuji trees tip bearing or spur bearing ?

Hi Rachel, They are considered tip bearing.

I want 2 dwarf Fugi apple trees to espalier. What varieties are best for cross pollination?

Sorry to say they did not survive.

This tree is listed as a cross pollinator for honeycrisp, yet honeycrisp is not listed as a cross pollinator for Fuji. Do Fuji and Honeycrisp work as cross pollinators for each other?

They do. There are literally hundreds of pollinator possibilities; we just don't have room to list them all.

can I use the Arkansas Black as a pollinator for the pollinator for this Fuji apple?

Yes, you can. They are a perfect pollinating pair.

Are there two dwarf eating apple trees for zone 8B which will pollinate each other? For example would a Crimson Crisp work with a Stark Super Red Fuji?

Yes, those two will work together because they have similar bloom times.

Beautiful tree!
Our Red Fuji Apple tree had a slow start after planting. It grew very slowly through its first summer, but when the weather cooled off, it grew well until the first frost. This spring has been cool with lots of rain, so it is growing well.

Stark Super Red Fuji
This little tree arrived healthy and well pruned for planting Spring 2017 and this Spring it surprised me with abundant blooms and fruit forming already! (of course, I will thin those and give the eager little tree another growth season before letting it carry too much fruit). Fuji is my husband's favorite apple, and they dehydrate very well for biking/camping/sailing.
