Description

Now you too can grow this ever-popular variety – but much better tasting and at a fraction of the cost of supermarket-bought apples!

'Golden Delicious' is brilliant for growing in your garden. Its fruits have exceptionally sweet, rich flavour and a distinctive golden-green colour. They will look wonderful as they ripen on your tree. It is heavy-cropping and easy to grow – what more could you want?

This highly versatile variety will store really well. Use your abundant crops to make delightful desserts and yummy puddings as well as keeping them to eat as they are. Your home-grown harvests will be incomparable to the bland, tasteless apples in the shops.  The key is to let them mature on the tree and pick them once they have turned a rich, golden colour.

Best of all, your tree will produce bumper crops each year, saving you loads of money compared to supermarket-bought apples over its long life of over 50 years. Enjoy!

Supplied as an established tree, 90-110 cm (3-3½ ft) tall in a 5L pot, ready to plant out.

Top Tips
  • Keep well watered, and if growing in a pot, use a good quality, soil-based compost.
  • Add Rootgrow Mycorrhizal Fungi to the roots when planting to help establish your tree more quickly.
  • Place your tree in a sunny position for the best crops.
Care Information
  • Apply a slow-release fertiliser such as blood, fish and bone, in early spring, and mulch to retain moisture.
  • Water regularly, and don't let the soil dry out if planted in pots.
  • Established trees don't require radical pruning - just take off any diseased, dying and damaged branches in late winter. Look at the overall shape and aim for an open structure of branches and remove any that cross over so they don't damage each other.
Delivery Information

Please allow us 3-5 working days to dispatch your order. Pre-ordered items will be sent as soon as possible after the date quoted and we'll generally ship your entire order with your pre-ordered items. When your order is dispatched, we'll send you another email with details of how to track it.

Most orders are sent on a fully-tracked courier service with Yodel. To avoid perishable items being stuck at depots and deteriorating, no signature is required, and our courier is asked to leave your order in a safe place on your property.

We'll send a tracking link when we dispatch your order, so you know when its due to arrive. Please note, once delivered we cannot be held responsible for loss or theft from your property. If you have any specific delivery instructions, please let us know - there's an option to enter a short message for the courier at the checkout.

Smaller, lighter, single-item orders may be sent through the post with Royal Mail - in which case no tracking is available.

Our experienced nursery team will always send your plants nursery fresh in the perfect condition to thrive when you plant them, so although most plants are very tough and will not be affected by all but the most extreme frosts or heatwaves, we avoid dispatching the most perishable plants if extreme weather is forecast, or over Bank Holiday weekends.

Please note, we cannot guarantee delivery on a certain day or time. Delivery to outlying postcode areas may take 1-2 days longer, dependent on your location.
