The Red Delicious Apple Tree is a classic American favorite known for its crisp texture, deep red skin, and mildly sweet flavor. An attractive, upright tree with showy white spring blooms and dense green foliage, it provides both beauty and a dependable harvest. Ideal for fresh snacking and lunchboxes, Red Delicious apples store well and ripen in mid to late season. Requiring a cross-pollinator for best fruit set, it’s an excellent addition to home orchards or as part of a multi-variety apple planting.
Growth Rate and Mature Size
Growth Rate: Grows at a moderate rate, typically maturing and fruiting in 3–5 years. Proper pruning and pollination support strong yields year after year.
Mature Size: Depending on rootstock, can grow 12–15 feet tall (semi-dwarf) or up to 20 feet (standard). Its structured, pyramidal growth habit suits rows, backyard plantings, or mixed fruit gardens.
Watering and Sunlight
Watering: Requires regular watering, especially during dry summers and fruit development. Maintain even soil moisture with weekly deep watering. Mulching helps retain moisture and suppress weeds.
Sunlight: Full sun is essential—aim for 6–8 hours daily. Good air circulation and sunlight are key to disease prevention and high-quality fruit. Partial shade can reduce bloom and fruit output.
