This cold-hardy apple variety produces juicy, crisp apples that ripen in early September. It grows 8 to 10' tall and has pinkish white flowers that appear in April. Best when paired with other early to mid-season blooming apple varieties.
The 'Compacta' is often used for foundation planting and hedging due to its dense, globular shape that stays neat with little pruning. It will slowly reach 4-6' tall and wide. Produces ornamental black berries in the fall that persist into winter.
