Brighter Blooms Dorsett Apple Tree (6-7 Feet Tall) - Fast-Growing Fruit Tree for Home Gardens, Backyard Orchards & Fresh Apple Harvests

Product Description

Most apple trees need plenty of cold weather before they can set fruit, which warm climates simply canâ€t offer. But thereâ€s a rare exception – the Dorsett Golden Apple (Malus domestica ‘Dorsett Goldenâ€). Whether you live in the Deep South, Florida, or Southern California, you can grow this apple tree and harvest a heavy crop of sweet summer apples each year with as few as 100 to 200 chill hours per year!The Dorsett Golden Apple tree was first discovered growing in the Bahamas, where it abundantly produced apples! If an apple tree is productive in the hot tropical environment of the Bahamas, you know it can also bear fruit in your warm climate. Relatively unknown to most backyard gardeners, the Dorsett Golden Apple tree actually has quite a long-standing track record. It was way back in 1954 that Mrs. Irene Dorsett found the original tree, which was subsequently named for her, growing in her orchard in Nassau, New Providence Island, Bahamas.
