Introducing the Sedona Sweet apple tree. This variety is highly prized for its exceptional sweetness, with Brix measurements reaching into the high 20s, and a distinctively crisp snap. The Sedona Sweet is a chance seedling discovered in an old orchard among heirloom varieties from our former nursery, Sonoma Antique Apple Nursery. It is the absolute last tree to bloom in the orchard, allowing it to miss the late spring frosts of the Sedona floor. Traditionally harvested in late autumn, these apples have excellent long-term storage qualities. They function as high-quality winter keepers, often retaining their flavor and crispness through early frosts of December and January.

Size of tree
Our trees range in height from 4-8 ft. in our field and trimmed to 4 to 5 ft. when shipped. Our young two year trees are most often feathered (side limbs). The trees diameter (caliper) is often 1/2 to 3/4 inch; *As noted by University of California Scientists and other qualified professionals the most successful trees often have caliper from 1/2" to 5/8" and usually establish faster than smaller and larger planting stock. .
Pruning tip
Basic idea for Pruning: Most fruit trees should be pruned in frost-free periods mid to late winter. (apricots best after bud break) Remove most vertical branches and shorten side branches. Fruiting wood is best on horizontal to 45 degree limbs. Learn more...
Shipping information
Shipping Note: Our fruit trees and berries are delivered to you bareroot during their winter dormancy from January through May depending on USDA zone. Trees are shipped with your invoice and helpful planting directions. There is no minimum quantity required but shipping rate for an individual tree is expensive since UPS/Fed Ex charge a dimensional weight and an additional handling fee to ship a tree. You'll find it's cost effective to consider a handful of trees,vines or our helpful Tree Starter Kits.
