Espalier 'Red Ellison' Apple Tree | Bare Root
- Produces ruby-red dessert apples with a distinctive, rich aniseed flavor and juicy texture; a sport of the classic 'Ellison's Orange'.
- Mid-season variety ready for harvesting in September, noted for good frost hardiness and resistance to scab and mildew.
- Requires a sunny, sheltered position with fertile, well-drained soil to ripen fruit effectively.
- Supplied as a dormant bare root tree, which should be planted immediately upon arrival to establish a strong root system before spring.
- Suitable for container growing in a pot of at least 45-50cm diameter (minimum 35 litres); soak roots prior to planting, ensure adequate drainage, and use a loam-based compost like John Innes No. 3.
- Trained as an Espalier form with horizontal tiers branching from a central vertical stem, ideal for growing flat against walls, fences, or support wires.
