Imagine stepping outside to harvest a crisp, honey-sweet Ambrosia apple right off the branch. This late-season favorite is a fantastic addition to the home orchard, prized for its beautiful pink-blushed skin and low acidity, making it perfect for fresh snacking and baking.
Thriving in the bright sunshine of zones 7 and 8, a mature Ambrosia tree reaches a manageable 15 feet tall and wide. It requires full sun to produce the sweetest, most abundant fruit. Remember, local deer and rabbits find the tender bark and low-hanging apples irresistible, so protect the trunk and lower branches with sturdy fencing while it establishes.
To give your tree the best start, blend your garden's native soil with Watters Premium Mulch to retain crucial moisture and improve drainage. Feed it with 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food at planting to establish strong roots and guarantee a juicy crop year after year.

🪴Is it safe to ship plants during extreme heat or cold?
We watch the weather maps like hawks. If a heatwave or a freeze is rolling through, we'll hold your
shipment in our climate-controlled nursery until it's safe to travel. We'd rather wait a week to ship a
healthy plant than rush a dead one to your door.
