Apple Gala 1 x Bare Root

Popular dessert apple with a naturally sweet flavour Reliable cropping in both warm and cooler UK climates Good storage potential when harvested at maturity Semi-dwarfing tree ideal for gardens of all sizes Apple ‘Gala’ is one of the world’s most widely grown dessert apples and for good reason. A dependable and adaptable variety, it performs well across the UK, producing consistent crops regardless of location or garden type. Bred from ‘Kidd’s Orange Red’ and ‘Golden Delicious’, ‘Gala’ inherits excellent texture and flavour from its distinguished parentage. When grown at home, the apples develop a far sweeter and more aromatic taste than shop-bought fruit, with attractive skin that deepens in colour as it ripens. Harvested in early to mid-autumn, ‘Gala’ apples store well, allowing you to enjoy homegrown fruit well beyond the picking season. Grafted onto semi-dwarfing M26 rootstock, the tree remains compact and manageable while still producing generous yields. Rootstock: M26 (semi-dwarfing) Flowering Group: FG4 Height at maturity: 2.5-3.5m Years to fruit: approx. 2 years from planting Age at despatch: 2 years Supplied as a bare-root specimen
