What is grafted plant

Q: What is a grafted plant?

Grafting is a method of vegetative (or asexual) propagation where a piece of one plant (scion) selected for its flowers or fruit and containing the desired genes to be duplicated is inserted into a piece of another plant (rootstock), with a strong vigorous root system, usually a seedling.

Benefits of the graft:

making a clone of the parent plant ensures the same cultivar, since most fruit trees will not come true to seed
taking a scion from a mature plant reduces time to flowering and fruiting (from 10-12 years for a seedling to 2-3 years or less for a grafted plant)
introducing dwarfing, hardiness, disease and pest resistance.
easier propagation method when other means like cutting or seed is not successful

"Anna" has red skin and is the most widely planted apple cultivar in Florida. The fruit resembles that of "Red Delicious" more than other low-chill apple cultivars. Originally from Israel, this large apple can be eaten green similar to "Granny Smith", or can be allowed to ripen to desired sweetness.
Low chill apples bear as far south as South Florida, and may be a unique addition to your yard. Attractive white apple blossoms will appear during Feb-March and give way to fruit (smaller than standard apples) in June. They remain a small tree, growing to about 15 feet.

Best paired with another variety for good cross-pollination. Sold in pair with "Dorsett Golden" variety - see item 4069 - Tropical Apple collection.
Tall plants may be trimmed for shipping. Contact us for alternative shipping options.
