This semi-dwarf variety is ideal for small garden spaces and even patio gardening. The 'Tangy Green' produces an apple with a crisp, tart flavor that will ripen in mid-September. They get 8-10' tall and 1-2 feet wide. Will bear fruit within first two years of planting if combined with a pollinator, such as their sister variety, the 'Tasty Red'.
Plants are vigorous, producing long shoots from soil level one growing season and bearing fruit the next. These are removed after bearing and replaced by the current year's growth. This makes the plant easy to prune and manage as a bush. Large fruit clusters with good flavor ripen in August each year. Berries have very high anthocyanin content--very good for you! This is the more productive variety, but both varieties are required for cross pollination in a ratio of 1 Samyl : 5 Samdal.
The 'Densa' inkberry is a larger variety that will reach 8-10' tall and wide at maturity. It has a dense growth habit and can withstand full sun to part shade.
