Apple — Gala DWARF
Malus domestica 'Gala'
Dwarf Apple label
Very popular tree which has been grafted onto a dwarfing rootstock (60% of standard) and still produces full size fruit! Trees are heavy bearers and need thinning to maintain size. Apples hang well on the tree and are firm, crisp and juicy. Gala is a medium chill apple and requires pollinators. Due to heavy cropping provide your tree with extra care - water well and give extra support by staking.
