As with other apples, you will need to plant two different varieties for pollination and heavy fruit set. Tangy Green features loads of pretty pink buds that open to blush pink to white flowers in spring that are followed by full-size lime green apples. If the fruits of the green Granny Smith apple are too tart for you, and you prefer sweetness, the almost perfectly round fruits of the Tangy Green combine sweet, tart, and crisp all into one delicious apple that can be eaten fresh off the tree or used in baking. With a stately upright form, beautiful flowers, fast growth rate, and LOADS of pretty, tasty fruits, Tangy Green is sure to be a captivating conversation piece and, as its name suggests, an tangy delight as well. \u003c\/div\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eWildlife Value\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe bloom pollen from apple trees is beneficial for bees as a food source in spring.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eNOTE:\u003c\/span\u003e As with all of our other plants and trees, all of our fruit plants are grown in containers outdoors so they are fully rooted and landscape-ready upon arrival.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLandscape \u0026amp; Garden Uses\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003eGrowing 10 to 14 feet tall and 3 to 5 feet wide with a columnar form, the Fruit Snacks Tangy Green Columnar Apple is ideal for use as a specimen or in grouping and rows in sunny landscape and woodland borders.
