The Malus domestica 'Golden Delicious' is a classic apple tree known for its recognisable, bright yellow apples with a delicious sweet flavour. Particularly popular for its crisp, juicy flesh and mild aroma, this apple is especially appreciated by children. 'Golden Delicious' blooms with beautiful blossoms in spring and produces a crop of medium-sized, golden yellow apples that are ready to be picked from October onwards.
Features:
- Fruit and Flavour: The 'Golden Delicious' apple has a sweet and mild flavour, ideal for fresh consumption. Its pale yellow flesh is crisp and juicy, making it a popular choice in many households.
- Storage: With cool storage, apples keep for a long time and retain their flavour and texture.
- Self-pollinating: This tree is partly self-pollinating, but a nearby pollinator such as 'Elstar', 'James Grieve', 'Alkmene' or 'Benoni' will provide a richer harvest.
Care and Pitch:
- Location: 'Golden Delicious' likes a warm, sheltered spot where the tree can blow dry well to reduce the risk of disease. The variety needs a sunny location for best fruit growth and ripening.
- Maintenance: It is important to prune the tree annually for good air circulation and to promote fruiting. Although the tree can be somewhat susceptible to fungal diseases, good location will largely help prevent this.
