Apple (Malus) ‘Goldrush’ Semi-dwarf 7 Gal

Apple 'Goldrush'
Malus 'Co-op 28'

Organic growers’ choice. These incredibly delicious dessert-apple trees are disease-resistant to apple scab and powdery mildew. Fruit has a mouthwatering complex, tart, tangy flavor that sweetens with age. Excellent fresh, in pies, crisps, and cider. Wonderful, remarkable keepers - apples can last up to 7 months in proper cold storage. These fruits are so amazing that cider companies have starting using them in single-variety ciders. Spur bearing.

Ed Fackler, a fruit consultant from Indiana says: "It's one of the easiest things to grow in my life. The tree sets a heavy crop but is easy to thin to achieve good-sized fruit."

Mid to late season blooming; ripens in mid-to-late October. Pollinator required. Very late harvest season.

Disease resistances: Very resistant apple scab. Highly resistant to powdery mildew. Moderate resistance to fire blight and black rot.
