(Dwarf) ‘Garden Delicious’ is aptly named since its fruit is delightfully delicious and it will fit in nearly every garden space in the edible landscape. A genetic dwarf, this selection can even be pruned smaller if so desired. Handsome greenish-yellow fruit carries a red blush when ripe in early September. It’s a great looking fruit but, even better, its flavor is superb, sweet and crisp even in the hottest climates. It is excellent for fresh eating, cooking or preserving and, since it is such great keeper, you can harvest in September, store it in a cool dry place and you will have crisp, fresh Apples right up to Christmas! ‘Garden Delicious’ is also self-fruitful meaning that you don’t need another variety to cross pollinate. That along with its small stature and, of course, its outstanding, memorable taste, makes this an excellent selection for the gardener who dreams of a orchard but only has a small space.

An excellent all purpose apple developed at the Geneva Experimental Station in New York state.
