Dwarf Apple Duo - Dorsett-Tropic Sweet

$99.00

Two low chill apple varieties in one pot. Plant a pollinating pair in one hole and prune as if one tree. Golden skinned Dorsett Golden and red skinned Tropic Sweet, sweet apples suitable for fresh eating and cooking. Dorsett Golden is a golden skinned apple with a beautifully tangy, sweet flavour and Tropic Sweet has a red blush skin and sweet flavour, similar to the Johnathon. The subtropical varieties are best when eaten fresh off the tree, and not used for extended storage. You can grow in a large pot, as an espalier or in the ground. Duo plantings are perfect for small back yards. Prune regularly to maintain compact shape, taking all inward pointing branches out. Provide nutrition slightly more than for one tree. Suitable for warm temperate to subtropical climates. Protect trees from late frost if you are in a more temperate area.

Originating from the Bolivian part of the Amazon basin in South America, the Bolivian name of the fruit is Achachairu and translated means honey kiss. Achacha is protected by Plant Breeders Right (PBR) and cannot be grown or propagated without licence agreement with Achacha Fruit Group

Great tasting fruit; one of my favourites.  Tree is manageable in size with mild pruning so the fruit is easy to harvest.
