WEALTHY APPLE TREE
The Wealthy Apple is a hardy, delicious apple that is red in color and ripens from mid-September to early October. It has a soft, white colored flesh with a sweet and juicy flavor that is good for eating, cooking and baking. The Wealthy Apple will need a pollinator in order to bear fruit. Here are a few varieties: Jonathan, McIntosh, Frostbite, Fuji, Gala, Granny Smith and Honeycrisp. It makes a great pollinator for others as well.

To help this tree settle in and thrive, we recommend these standard planting practices: Plant in deep, fertile, well-draining soil, selecting a location that receives full sun to ensure optimal fruit production and foliage color. Apple trees are sensitive to standing water, so avoid planting in low-lying areas where water collects. Provide deep, regular watering during the first few growing seasons until the tree is well established and ensure you verify the soil drainage before planting.
Maintenance is uniform across most edible cultivars: Prune in late winter or early spring while the tree is dormant to improve air circulation, control shape, and encourage productive growth. Apply a layer of organic mulch around the root zone to conserve moisture and suppress weeds, keeping the material pulled back from the trunk to prevent decay. Most apple trees require cross-pollination from a different, compatible variety to produce a reliable harvest, so always ensure you have a pollinator partner nearby.
