Prairie Sensation Apple vs White Fringe Tree
Malus x Prairie Sensation
Chionanthus virginicus
NOT AVAILABLE THIS SEASON - MIGHT RETURN
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.
For fruit production, cross-pollination is required. Apples need to be planted with another Apple or Crab Apple variety.
Note: We do not ship grafted apples to BC due to regulatory restrictions from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
White Fringe Tree is known for its fringe-like white flowers. It can either grow as a small tree or a large multistemmed shrub. The White Fringe Tree has separate male and female plants. Both male and female flowers have white fringe-like petals, but the male flowers are longer and showier. The female flowers give way to clusters of dark blue to black berries. These berries are not edible for humans but attract birds and other wildlife.
The White Fringe Tree is tolerant of clay soils, saline soils, and air pollution but does not do well in prolonged dry conditions.
