Apple Tree - Arkansas Black
Apple Tree - Arkansas Black The Arkansas Black Spur Apple is a large, late season apple fruit tree. It is a very late maturing variety grown primarily in the Southeast. The distinctive dark red skin encases a high quality fruit even where summer nights are warm. Use this apple for dessert and cooking. This is a great variety to add in a cider blend, providing a high acid, spicy flavor. They have an excellent storage life and they keep for many months. Arkansas Black blooms in mid-season and is a great pollinator for early blooming apple varieties, varieties blooming in the middle of the season, and varieties blooming late in the season. The Arkansas Black apple tree requires a pollinator in order to bear fruit. We suggest the following other apple trees as pollinators: Golden Delicious Apple, Granny Smith Apple and Dolgo Crabapple For best results, keep soil pH between 6.0 to 7.0
