Mutsu Apple (4-6′)

Mutsu is a large green-yellow apple that can do well in storage. It has low-chill hours needed and can do better in warmer climates, dropping around October. It has zone 5-9 hardiness.It is a triploid apple, requiring two pollination partners to be reliably productive. Some of these partners can be Dolgo Crab, Enterprise, Gold Rush, and Liberty.

‘Antonovka’ rootstocks – Our apples and crabapples are grafted onto standard rootstock, which will result in 25’-35’ trees. Think towards those long-lived apple trees from days of yore, chances are they were on a ‘standard’ type rootstock. These trees, while big and not as uniform as the typical clonal orchard rootstocks, are going to be strongly rooted and resilient to stand the test of time across a range of conditions. With thoughtful pruning, these trees can still be managed if you so wish. The commonly recommended spacing for these rootstocks is around 20’ to 30’ apart.
