✅ Botanical Name: Malus domestica ‘Golden Delicious’
✅ Hardiness Zones: 4 – 9
✅ Bloom Time: Spring — gorgeous white flowers
✅ Fruit ripens in late September to October
✅ Light needs: Full to part sun (6+ hours of sun daily)
✅ Soil: Consistently moist, well-drained soil — slightly acidic preferred
✅ Mature Size: Averages 12-15′ tall and wide
✅ Self-fertile but produces more with another variety nearby

✅ Heat tolerant and cold hardy once established

✅ Treat with copper-based fungicide in spring to keep this tree healthy. It’s easier to prevent disease than to treat a problem! They do need care but are rewarding!
✅ Consistent applications of neem oil also work well (but don’t combine with copper at the same time)
✅ You can prune/thin once dormant (late fall to early spring) to prevent overcrowding which creates disease
✅ Pollinators love my blooms!
✅ Add compost to your planting hole and apply a slow-release balanced fertilizer in the spring on top of the soil. Espoma Tree-Tone works well
