The Anna Apple tree has a low chill requirement, making it a great apple tree for the South. These trees are upright to semi-spreading and medium in height. It needs only 200 chill hours to fruit. The fruit is a red blush, good flavor with a sweet/semi-acidic taste that ripens in June and July. Once they ripen, these medium to large apples can be eaten fresh or used in your favorite home recipes. Anna apples also store very well, keeping for 6-8 weeks in the refrigerator so you can enjoy them through late summer. The tree has a moderate growth-rate and reaches a mature height and width of 20-25 feet. The Anna Apple tree is semi-self fertile but will produce a larger crop if pollinated with the Golden Dorsett Apple tree or with the Floribunda Crabapple tree. For planting, apple trees prefer full sun and slightly acidic soil. The Anna Apple tree is hardy in Zones 6-9.
