I am wondering myself whether or not these would really be suitable for coastel north of Brisbane weather. I think not actually and I wondered what sort of climate you are ine. What would be the lowest temperature you get down to in winter?

Dwarf Custard Apple - Tropic Sun (Grafted) 10/10

Malanda231's Edible Fruits
Update: 1868 days 22hrs

Comments: - Espaliered, looks awesome - took well to this and friends have commented. Love the fruit, not gritty/grainy like some other custard apples and small seeds too. No need to hand pollinate. Downside is that all of the fruit comes at once, quickly over a month from mid-feb to march in Brisbane. Must bag/net to protect from fruit fly - unripe fruit drops leading up to harvest as a natural thinning method so I bag by Feb and find fruit only start to get stung two weeks after the very first fruit drops. I harvest fruit to freeze the pulp to use later. Amazing with vanilla ice cream. I took a gamble with limited info online when I got this tree - it is a winner!!! I don't know why someone could not like the taste.

Dwarf Apple - Tropic Sweet (Grafted) 8/10

Malanda231's Edible Fruits
Update: 1868 days 22hrs

Comments: -

Espaliered, pretty flowers at front entrance with dwarf golden dorsett and nashi pear. Good snack sized fruit within six months of purchase. Must bag/net to protect from fruit fly... best time to harvest is when fruit drops into bag. I bag fruit when slightly larger than my thumb as some fruit drops before then, as prior to that it is too easy to damage tieing the bag on and you need to do your thinning. Won mother-in-law over so got her a tree for christmas. So much nicer tasting than store-bought fruit. I want an Anna tree one day too.

Most interested in seeing the multiple crops happen throughout the year...

I have had a few more apples off this tree this year but unfortunately I have developed a love for Fuji apples and I can't grow them here in my hot environment.

Dwarf Apple - Dorsett Golden (Grafted) 10/10

DesKing1's Edible Fruits
Update: 2271 days 24hrs

Comments: -

   I love apples, but I'm sick of the tasteless ones sold in supermarkets, so three trees should keep us going for hopefully nearly six months of the year.

   Bought from Daleys and planted mid Nov 2017 (Gold Coast) in a garden bed next to a dwarf tropical anna (left) and dwarf tropic sweet (centre). These three form a triple planting about 45cm apart under the Dave Wilson Nursery backyard orchard concept. The entire bed has a thick layer of cane mulch. At present (Jan 2018) they are about 90cm tall, and will be pruned regularly so they grow no taller than 150-180cm.

   I fertilise with varying ratios and amounts of Dynamic Lifter or Rooster Booster, sulphate of potash, and blood and bone at the beginning of spring, summer and autumn. I also give fortnightly foliar sprays of a diluted solution of Seasol, Powerfeed for flowers and fruit, soluble sulphate of potash, and Epsom salts during the non-dormant months.

   I use a soil moisture meter, and water the trees as necessary.

   All three apple trees are very healthy and growing vigorously, and the grafts are very strong.

Planted: 2017

Height 90 Centimetres

Growing: In the Ground

Sun/Shade: Full Sun

Pollination: Cross Pollination

Cross Pollinator Variety: Dwarf tropic sweet and dwarf tropical anna

Pest Control: Occasional Eco-Neem spray, and copper spray during dormancy. When fruiting the fruit will be bagged against fruit fly.

Dwarf Apple - Royal Gala (Grafted) 10/10

Slicko's Edible Fruits
Update: 2310 days 2hrs

Comments: -

I bought the book "Growing Apples in the Tropics" by Kevin Hauser from Kufflel Creek Nursery where he advocates that it is   possible to obtain decent apple crops from varieties that have chill hours above those accepted as low chill varieties and that he sells his trees into the warmer areas of Africa.

So my Dwarf Royal Gala and Granny Smith are going to be grown using his methods. Already my Anna and Tropic sweet are flowering using his methods. Not enough yet for pollination but we are still 2 weeks from spring! 

Jan 2017: Royal Gala must be self fertile to some degree as the tree is setting fruit where ever it flowers.There is not anything else in flower in the garden and being iin a sub tropic cl imate I don't expect that  there would be anyone else close by trying the same thing. Anyhow it will be interesting to see what happens.

Dec 2017 A small crop of quite nice apples coming on. It was late coming into flower but coincided with the Granny Smith so it set a lot fo fruit that I have had to thin heavily..
