Urban Apple® Tangy Green™ Columnar Apple Tree

Ok. We'll admit it. It looks a little weird. Apples growing along the limbs of a tree that is only 2-3 feet wide? But once you see it… and then taste it… you'll see how ingenious the new Urban Apple® Tangy Green™ Columnar Apple Tree (Malus x 'AK-98') really is!

Tangy Green™ is the modern solution to having normal-sized Apples in smaller urban gardens, on balconies, and in sunny container gardens anywhere! Staying short and only 2-3 feet wide, Tangy Green™ gives huge Apple yields in a small-footprint sized space. This makes it perfect for containers and tight-squeezes. The green-skinned fruit is produced on fruit spurs that hug the main leader closely. First developed in Czech Republic, Urban Apples® have been a revolution in at-home fruit growing!

You'll have romantic, fragrant white Apple blossoms in the spring followed by full-sized tart green baking Apples in the fall, so plant these petite trees where you can enjoy the flowers and fruit easily! Tangy Green™ will grow and set fruit the first year you plant it and only have higher yields year after year! For the best crops, a pollinator tree is needed so plant Tangy Green™ with one of its sisters Tasty Red™ or Blushing Delight™. You'll double the yield and double the fun!

Planting and Application:

Urban Apples® and their pollinators look amazing planted in twin pots around your seating areas, flanking the entrance of a garden path or anchoring a garden bed. The formal effect combined with the fragrant blossoms and green fruit will be conversation starters!

Take your edible landscaping to the next level! Especially a pair of sentries standing on either side of your front door entry! Or mark the entrance to a garden path with potted or in-ground Columnar Apple Trees on either side! Create a striking front garden berm with Tangy Green™ acting as a unique punctuation mark among the formal garden beds. Curb appeal will follow close behind.

What a chic and modern looking Victory Garden you'll create with a row of these space-saving gems lining the main walk, surrounded by veggies and herbs that will appreciate not being shaded out by a larger tree! Balcony or Rooftop gardeners rejoice as any sunny spot can now grow Columnar Apples!

Container gardeners, porch and patios in planters, or in the ground in that sunny but skinny patch of ground that runs along the side of your home leading to the back yard. It's hard to believe but totally true! You can grow space-saving columnar fruit in any sized garden, even on your balcony or rooftop garden!

#ProPlantTips for Care:

Easy-to-grow, columnar Apple Trees need at least 6 hours of direct sunlight a day for optimal flowering and fruiting. Plant Apple Trees like Tangy Green™ and its pollinator tree in a well-drained location or container with good drainage and ample room for its roots. Provide these fruiting trees with regular moisture access and fertility, plus a 3-4 inch deep layer of arborist bark chips. Provide container-grown Apples with a protected winter location in colder growing regions of USDA planting zones 4 to 9, and stake your tree to support its straight growth.
