Columnar Apples
"The Easiest to Grow Fruit Trees!"
These unique, hardy and disease-resistant varieties are prized for their unusual, upright and compact form. An attractive complement to the landscape, patio or deck, our Columnar varieties will grow to 10-12 feet tall, but can be topped at any desired height. Columnar Apples often produce short upright branches which can be left to increase fruit production or pruned off. Our Columnar Apples are hardy to approximately Zone 4 and will pollinate each other or can be pollinated by other apple varieties.
