Product Details

The Red Delicious Apple has achieved something that very few other fruit varieties have. Its true that the Red Delicious fruit has a deep, intense, sugary flavor with a seemingly crystallic texture that melts in your mouth. This alone makes Red Delicious a fruit worth having, yet it has another benefit making it an even more attractive choice. Simply put, the fruit itself is stunningly beautiful. A deep ruby color blushes over the ripe apples, perfectly clashing with the dark green leaves, giving the apples an effect of popping out of the tree. The apples are consistently symmetrical with a gorgeous rounded triangular shape so perfect that it doesn't seem natural. These terrific qualities make a Red Delicious equally powerful asbothan ornamental and orchard tree in a landscape.
  • Red delicious apples are remarkably sweet and have been 1 of the most popular apples in north America for close to 20-years
  • Red delicious apples are as beautiful as they are delicious
  • Used for both ornamental and fruit-growing purposes
  • Attracts wildlife like deer, honeybees and birds
  • Great for baking, cooking, and fresh eating

      Majestic Splendor
      I just received my Online Orchard Dwarf Red Delicious Apple Tree, less than an hour ago. It may be "dwarf", but it is by no means flimsy. I instinctively smiled, as I carefully pulled my new apple tree out of its box ... not knowing what surprise awaits me. What a pleasant surprise I was blessed with. It was: beautiful, majestic and much stronger than I expected. I live in Southern California. It is around 4:00 P.M. and still quite sunny. I excitedly anticipate the passing of just one more hour when the heat dissipates. That will be when I will spend the evening watching the sun go down, while planting my Online Orchards Dwarf Red Delicious Apple tree.

        Delivered as a stem with a few clipped branches but they started to sprout leaves a day or two later. Give it a 24 soak in a bucket of water before planting. Doing well so far. The top/main stem was clipped so not sure how much taller it will get.

        Bare root is wrapped in nutrients from Online Orchards. Planted May 19, 2020 and the tree started showing leaf growth in around 10 days. Doing real well so far.

            Plant arrived in good shape, nice size, leaves on it and not only survived a checked in air baggage journey to Pakistan but also sprouted some off season blossoms given the warmer weather at destination. So happy and excited to have this beautiful little apple tree! ??

              Arrived healthy. Packed well for shipping bare root. It has only been a few weeks, but doing well so far. Bought a different apple tree from Home Depot that is doing fine after one year.

                There doesn't seem to be any new growth. There are just a few leaves on it that were there from the start.

                I thought the tree was dormant so I’ve given it a few weeks to show signs of life. Instead I’ve discovered it’s dead so I wasted $30.00.
