Description
|
Pink Lady is a semi-dwarf growing tree with a strong production of medium sized sweet-tart fruit ripening in late season. This variety is another low chill apple but requires a pollinator for best yields. Apples can be mixed with other fruiting trees to create a home orchard and do best when planted with other apple varieties. Requires 400 chilling hours.
