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:

Tree has been doing well since it was planted. Still a few years away from producing fruit. No problems at all.

It’s been a year since I planted my dwarf plant and I have only trimmed the top this year. It has taken root nicely here in Michigan and I see leaves and branches blooming. I’m hoping once it produces Apple’s I can give 5 stars!

My honeycrisp looked great when it came in the mail, and did well through the warmer summer months. The tree died off above the ground over the winter (not sure why), but is coming back. Despite this, Stark has great plants!
SKIP HITCHCOCK –
My rabbits really loved it last winter. Hopefully, it is strong enough to survive.

The tree is in its third year and I anticipate getting apples next year.

I got my bare root trees in mid-April 2018. I planted them the next day per your instructions. The cherry tree never took off but the peach and apple trees seemed to be doing OK. later the one apple trees leaves started dying. I mentioned it to the person at the help line. she said that I would get a replacement for the cherry this spring but asked me to wait to see if the apple tree came back. The other apple tree seemed fine but this year has not shown any sign of life. I ordered 2 more trees this spring and received the replacement cherry and and the rest of my order in March. I think the earlier delivery made for a better start. They all seem to be doing fine and the peach I got last year is doing fine too. You were recommended to me by a friend that ordered several fruit trees from you and he had good results.

I purchased one of these last year and it took off after planting. It seems to have survived it’s first winter here and is looking pretty good so far. I plan to get a couple more this year.
TOM CALABRESE –
Winter was a bad one and never got to enjoy the apple tree wind and poor soil didn’t help either

I paid extra for the supreme dwarf, but after 4 years the tree is still tine. There are few branches or leaves, and I don’t know that I will ever see it bear fruit. I’ll keep it, but I was expecting far more growth per year.
