For small spaces and something different, try out this unique columnar variety from the Urban Apple® series. Growing very straight and thin, it takes up less than 2 sq ft and delivers tasty green apples. It’s quite a unique look. Put it in a patio pot for apples close by and a conversation starter at parties. Or, since two varieties are needed for pollination, let Tangy Green and another Urban Apple tree stand sentry around a door way. Several trees in a line along a side yard or back border will provide you with delicious home-grown fruit to set your recipes apart. Firm and tart, Tangy Green can stand up to baking and tastes great in apple pies. The tartness is also great for salads; because of its higher acid level, it stays fresh longer without browning. Urban Apple® trees are all highly disease resistant selections and are likely to produce fruit in one to two years. Malus domestica ‘AK-98’
