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

Suggested pollinators are Gala, Granny Smith, Empire, McIntosh and Red Delicious. It is not pollinated by Gravenstein. Make sure trees you buy are measured from the ground up! While this may sound a bit sneaky, the sad truth is some nurseries try to make their trees seem a lot taller by including the roots in the height. Even worse, others will charge you for a large tree but then hack them down to save money on shipping. We sell our trees with the height measured from the base up.  When you buy a tree from Nature Hills Nursery, it will be the height you paid for after you plant it.  We take pride in delivering the highest quality plants with healthy roots and full, well-established stems and foliage.  You can buy in confidence with our one year plant guarantee.
