Malus x Prairie Sensation
Spiraea japonica Anthony Waterer
ONLY AVAILABLE BY CONTRACT GROW
Prairie Sensation Apple is a cold hardy tree that produces large, delicious apples that are great for fresh eating.
Developed at the University of Saskatchewan, the apples produced by Prairie Sensation have been reported to have a juicy, crisp, and sweet flavor. Beautifully round in shape, these apples range from yellow to green with a reddish overlay.
Like all other apples, Prairie Sensation requires an additional pollinator, such as a crabapple or another apple to ensure fruit production. Keep in mind most residential neighbourhoods will have another pollinator present, but it does not hurt to get two just in case.
Note: We do not ship grafted apples to BC due to regulatory restrictions from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
Anthony Waterer Spiraea is a low maintenance shrub with a dwarf, rounded form. In spring and summer rosy pink blooms emerge against green foliage. Its tolerance of a variety of well-drained soils makes it an ideal foundation, landscaping, or border plant.
If deer and rabbit are an issue on your property, consider planting Anthony Waterer Spiraea for its deer/rabbit resistance. Due to its compact form, minimal pruning is required.
