Malus domestica 'Kidd's Orange Red' is a vigorous, deciduous tree of bushy, upright habit with ovate, green leaves and scented, pale pink flowers blooming in spring. Flowers are followed by very aromatic, crisp and sweet, yellow, flushed orange and red, apple fruits. Their skin is thin and the flesh is dense, juicy, and full of flavour. It’s a late season variety, ready for harvesting in November. It can be preserved until January. Malus domestica 'Kidd's Orange Red' grows best in rich, neutral, moderately fertile, moist, well-drained soils. It thrives in full sun. It can tolerate partial shade but the best crop is achieved in full sun. Requires another apple nearby for pollination. Adaptable to urban conditions. Requires regular pruning and thinning, otherwise fruits may be small. Apple 'Kidd's Orange Red' is a wonderful and delicious dessert apple with a good balance of sugar and acidity. It can be eaten fresh or used for culinary purposes.

M26 is a semi-dwarfing rootstock (smaller than MM106) used for apple trees, particularly in orchards and home gardens. It produces trees 10-12 feet in height, making them easier to manage and harvest. M26 ensures early fruit production, good anchorage, and medium vigor. However, it requires staking during early years and is moderately susceptible to fire blight.
