Seed Quantity: 10 Golden Delicious Apple Seeds
Plant type and growing cycle: Perennial, deciduous fruit tree. Annual growing cycle with spring flowering and fruit ripening in late summer/early autumn.
Plant height: The tree can reach heights of between 3 and 6 metres in open ground, but can be managed with regular pruning to adapt to smaller spaces or to pot cultivation.
Uses: Excellent for fresh consumption thanks to its sweet flavor and crunchy texture. Ideal for making cakes, strudels, applesauce, juices, ciders, and preserves.
Tasting Notes: Medium-large fruits with smooth, thin skin, bright golden yellow in color when fully ripe. The pulp is creamy white, fine, crunchy, juicy, and intensely sweet, with a delicate acidic note that balances the flavor. The aroma is distinctive and fruity.
Hardiness and Origin: This variety is highly adaptable to temperate climates. Native to West Virginia, USA, it exhibits good resistance to common fruit tree diseases if properly cared for.
Sowing period: Sowing apple tree seeds is recommended in autumn (with winter protection) or in spring, after a period of cold stratification.
Harvest period: The fruits typically ripen between late August and October, depending on the climate zone and growing conditions.
Optimal germination conditions: Seeds require a period of cold stratification (approximately 60-90 days at 1-5°C) to break dormancy. After stratification, sow in a moist, well-drained substrate, maintaining a temperature of approximately 18-22°C.
Soil type: Prefers deep, fertile, well-drained soil with a slightly acidic or neutral pH (pH 6.0-7.0). It is essential to avoid waterlogging.
Recommended exposure: Full sun for at least 6-8 hours a day, to encourage abundant fruiting and optimal fruit color.
Germination times: After stratification and sowing, germination can occur in 2-4 weeks, but times may vary.
Pot or ground cultivation: Although it prefers open ground for optimal development, easy pot cultivation is possible with large containers and proper care. In open ground, a spacing of at least 4-5 meters between plants is recommended.
Quality Specifications: Non-GMO (genetically unmodified) seeds, selected to ensure high germination and varietal fidelity. Ideal for those seeking seeds for an organic garden or sustainable fruit orchard.
