Description
Discover the exceptional qualities of Apple 'Jonagold', a renowned cross between Jonathan and Golden Delicious apples, developed in America during the 1940s. This variety boasts large, attractive fruits with pale green-yellow skins adorned with a striking red blush, making it as visually appealing as it is delicious. Known for its balanced flavour that combines sweetness and tartness, Jonagold is a versatile apple suitable for various culinary uses. Whether enjoyed fresh off the tree, used in cooking and baking, juiced for refreshing beverages, or fermented into cider, Jonagold delivers consistently excellent results. Ideal for both amateur and seasoned gardeners, this dwarf apple tree reaches a manageable height of 2.5-3m (8-10'), making it perfect for smaller gardens or even container planting. While Jonagold is not self-fertile, it thrives when planted near another apple variety to ensure cross-pollination and maximize fruit production. With an estimated time to cropping of just 2 years and optimal yields achieved after 5 years, this apple variety promises both abundant harvests and ornamental beauty in any garden setting. How to Grow: Light: Plant in a sunny, sheltered spot to promote healthy growth and fruit production. Temperature: Hardy and adapts well to various climate conditions. Watering: Keep soil consistently moist, especially during hot, dry periods. Feeding: Incorporate well-rotted manure or compost at planting and annually thereafter to nourish the tree. Pollination: Not self-fertile; plant near another apple variety for cross-pollination. Images shown are for guidance only and depict expected results upon maturity.
