Fruit Snacks™, Real fruit you can reach and eat.
Skinny apple trees that need minimal pruning.

It all started with an apple, but that certainly isn’t where the Fruit Snacks™ line ends.

Everyone is trying to eat healthy. These perfectly upright, dwarf & skinny apple trees make it easier for consumers to pick delicious homegrown snacks right from their backyard.  

You must plant two different apple trees to get fruits. The bees will do the rest. 

Fruit Snacks™ are perfect for small spaces; they make lovely hedges and will grow perfectly in pots. Everyone can grow some Fruit Snacks™. No harsh chemicals are required because the Fruit Snacks™ line was bred by the best apple breeders in Europe to be rust-resistant and virus free. Apples are just the beginning. Different fruits will be added in the future. 

Did you know apple trees have really pretty flowers? Beautiful flowers to feed the bees in the spring and truly tasty fruits in the fall. 

Anyone can grow Fruit Snacks™. Everyone should.

About Golden Treat™

Deliciously aromatic, crunchy, and firm, Golden Treat™ apples are a favorite among chefs and connoisseurs. Crisp, with a harmonic sugar-acid ratio, they are often added to cheese plates, or used for baking in cobblers and pies. In celebration of spring, medium-pink buds open to soft-pink flowers. A golden-skinned apple with a slightly tart taste, the fruits are full-sized on this miniature tree. There’s nothing like having a baking apple right outside your door!

Easy to grow and care for due to their size, Fruit Snacks™ columnar apples are ideal choices for small spaces. Trees grow 8-10’ tall and should be planted on 2’ centers for best results. Their cold hardiness and disease resistance make them a reliable choice for an edible privacy hedge or as accent plants in large containers. Like other apples, you will need two different varieties for pollination. Most Fruit Snacks™ apples bloom mid-season and will be good pollinizers for the others.
