• ✅ Up for sale: McIntosh Apple Tree, sent bare root from January through April. Trees are 4-5 feet. (We send to colder states beginning in late March and April) Zone Range: 3-7, Chill Hours: 900.
• ✅ The McIntosh apple is known for making especially good applesauce. This is a large, bright red apple with thin, smooth skin. The crisp, juicy fine white flesh with pink streaks is an old-time favorite in the north. McIntosh apple trees are extremely hardy and very productive. McIntosh apple trees pollinate well with Gala or Red Delicious, and ripen in September, requiring 900 chill hours and being semi-self fertile.
