Description
Enjoy a taste of American orchard history with the Semi-Dwarf McIntosh Apple Tree (Malus 'McIntosh'). This heirloom variety, beloved for over 200 years, produces sweet, aromatic apples that are perfect for both fresh eating and baking. The fruit matures in early fall and features the signature red-and-green skin with crisp, juicy white flesh.
Ideal for cold climates, this tree thrives in full sun and well-draining soil. Reaching 12–15 feet tall and wide, the semi-dwarf form is perfect for home orchards and smaller landscapes. Blooming in early to mid-season, it requires a second apple variety nearby for successful pollination. Add the classic McIntosh Apple Tree to your garden and enjoy generations of flavor.
