Stayman Apple Tree

The Stayman Apple Tree is an heirloom variety of apple that is grown for its outstanding and unique flavor as an eating apple. This juicy, crisp apple has the perfect balance of sweet and tart, and a unique spicy flavor you will love. It crops well every year, with large, round apples that begin to ripen in mid-October and store well through the winter. Besides eating fresh it makes great apple sauce and cider, bringing its unique flavoring to these products too. Heirloom apples are hard to find, but they are often the most interesting and special to eat – and this one certainly is.

• Heirloom variety with outstanding flavor
• Top-quality eating apple
• Excellent for apple sauce and cider too
• Grows well in the north-east
• Crops well every year

Plant your Stayman Apple Tree in well-drained soil in full sun. It tolerates pests and diseases well, and it bears every year, not every second year, as many older apple varieties can do. Begin pruning when young, and develop an open center, with radiating branches from a single trunk – this allows the sun in to ripen your crop well. This tree should have another variety planted near it as a pollinator. We recommend the other heirloom varieties Rome Beauty and Jonathan as ideal choices.
