Description:
The Malus domestica 'Wealthy' is a semi-dwarf apple tree known for its juicy apples with a unique blend of tart and sweet flavors, reminiscent of honey, raspberry, and strawberry. It features heavy blooming pink and white flowers, making it an excellent pollinator tree. This variety is cold hardy and requires 1,000 chill hours, with good resistance to common apple diseases like apple scab, fire blight, and cedar-apple rust. It produces fruit earlier than many other varieties, typically starting in September, and is suitable for cooking, canning, and fresh eating. The tree is adaptable to USDA growing zones 4 to 8 and prefers full sun and well-drained soil. Its compact growth makes it ideal for small landscapes, and it begins fruiting between 3 and 5 years of age. To achieve the largest crop, a pollinator partner is recommended.
