Braeburn Apple

Braeburn Apple Details

The Braeburn Apple is a popular variety that bears large fruit towards the end of autumn. The fruit are light green-yellow and red with flesh that is juicy and very tasty. The M9 rootstock keeps this Braeburn apple tree to about 3 m tall and 2.5 m wide, though it can be contained with trimming as necessary. It is self-pollinating and so does not require another apple variety planted close by to produce fruit. Best results with this variety are achieved when it is grown in full sun on a well-drained, sheltered site. It is tolerant of frost, though a late frost in spring can reduce yields. The Braeburn Apple is commonly planted for fruit production, included in a mixed planting, or maintained in a courtyard garden.
