Apple tree 'Elstar' | Malus Domestica - 100-120cm - 7lt

Malus Domestica 'Elstar' is a cross between Golden Delicious and Ingrid Marie. It’s a vigorous, deciduous tree with oval, dark green leaves and fragrant, pale pink flowers blooming in spring. It produces heavy and regular crops of greenish-yellow, red flushed, apples with moderately juicy and crispy flesh and excellent, intense, sweet flavour. Ready for harvesting in September, but perfect to harvesting in October and can be stored until February. Malus Domestica 'Elstar' grows best in fertile, humus-rich, deep, moist, well-drained soils. It thrives in full sun, but can tolerate partial shade. It is very resistant to frost and can withstand wind. Pruning and fruit thinning are required. Pollination group 3. It is partially self-fertile and needs the presence of other apple varieties blooming at the same time for better crops. Apple 'Elstar' is a great-looking apple tree with excellent, early-ripening apples of intense flavour. Great for eating fresh or used for culinary purposes.
