Pollinator required to bear fruit
One of the country’s top 5 apples!
Phenomenal crunch, juiciness and sweetness have made Honeycrisp a nationwide favorite. The fruit is wonderfully aromatic and sweet as honey, with an explosively juicy, crisp bite. Small spaces are perfect for this naturally compact tree. Originates from Excelsior, Minnesota in 1974. Cold-hardy. Ripens in early September. Pollinator required: Choose any other apple variety.
Note: A properly-applied calcium supplement substantially improves the apple quality and makes the tree easier to grow.

How do I find my Hardiness Zone?
Canada’s Plant Hardiness Zones will tell you which plants will do well in your particular climate. Each zone is determined by the lowest average winter temperature recorded in a given area. Hardiness Zone information is included on all tree and plant product pages, so you know instantly whether a certain plant is likely to succeed where you live. Natural Resources Canada provides helpful options to find your zone:

I received the tree last year around May, i was waiting for it this spring to bloom but it is dead . so disappointed.

It would probably be a bit of exaggeration, but the ‘tree’ was not much more than a twig. Despite protection, the sapling did not make it through the winter. This is the last time I will purchase fruit trees online. I want to see what they look like on the front end and make my own choice.

Bought one to replace the one that had died from another company. I watered it the same as the other trees i got from Stark and other than getting a few leaves at the base it was dead. I spent a days pay & only got 1 tree & no refund for the rest of my money.

I planted the tree last summer and got some leaves going by fall. Over spring when I checked, the tree had died as stem and branches had brown wood at core (should have been green if tree is still alive). I will need to get another tree now. Hope a new one will last me more than few seasons.

Stock arrived in good shape, approx. 3 ft tall, planted right away & entire tree looks healthy and full of nice green leaves.

So far a beautiful tree. Occupies a special spot in my orchard. Looking forward to a crop next season. Truly a perfect baby tree
