Norkent Apple vs Antonovka Apple
Malus x Norkent
Malus pumila var. Antonovka (Malus domestica)
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON
Norkent Apple produces fruit that is desirable for fresh eating. The apples most closely resemble Golden Delicious in appearance and taste. Our stock is grafted onto rootstock for better planting. If you want a great prairie hardy apple for eating, cooking, juicing or making cider, this is the variety for you.
Note: We do not ship grafted apples to BC due to regulatory restrictions from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
Originally created in Russia, this apple tree is incredibly cold hardy and commonly used as a root stock for other apple breeds.
Cross pollination is required with another apple or crabapple tree in order for fruit to be produced. Generally, fruit production does not occur until the tree has reached 5-7 years of age.
Its fruit are yellow/green, low sugar, late fruiting and great for pies and cider.
Note: Unfortunately this difficult to grow species is not currently scheduled to grow at TreeTime.ca. Perhaps try purchasing seed from SeedTime.ca and growing your own? Or sign up for a restock notification above.
