YouGarden Apple Elstar Patio Tree in Pot 5L

Bred to be the ideal size for growing in a pot on your patio, whilst still delivering tasty crops of delicious apples, Patio 'Elstar' is an excellent choice when space is limited. A versatile variety that is delicious and juicy, particularly when sampled straight from the tree. This apple's honeyed sweetness balanced with acidic notes means it is also a great choice for cooking, superb in cakes and desserts and makes a great apple sauce. Producing good-sized dessert apples, greenish-yellow at the base and flushed red at the top, 'Elstar' are satisfying to bite into, their lemon-white flesh being crunchy but not too crisp. And, of course, they are bursting with juicy flavour when it's time to pick them in October. Expertly grafted to an M9 rootstock, 20-30cm above soil level, we've been able to further restrict the already dwarfing habit to produce a wonderful yet productive patio tree. Fully deserving its coveted RHS Award of Garden Merit, you can be sure that this is a proven garden performer, guaranteed to be suitable for UK gardeners at every level of experience. You can therefore plant this in the garden with confidence, harvesting for many years to come. Supplied as an established tree, 90-110cm tall grown on an M9 dwarfing rootstock in a 5 litre pot, growing to a height and spread of 1.5m.
