The McIntosh Apple Tree is the ultimate choice for anyone wanting a taste of classic, tangy-sweet nostalgia right from the branch. Growing into a handsome, rounded shape about 12 to 15 feet tall and wide, this tree makes a stunning focal point in zones 7 and 8. It loves soaking up full sun, which is the secret to developing that beautiful red and green blushing skin and crisp texture.
While deer may occasionally browse the tender spring leaves, an established McIntosh is robust and resilient. To give your new tree the best start, blend your native soil 50/50 with Watters Premium Mulch; this opens up heavy soils so young roots can breathe and retain moisture. Feed it with 7-4-4 All-Purpose Plant Food to fuel deep root growth and future heavy harvests. Planting this tree is an investment in generations of backyard apple pies.

stems or wilted foliage, take a photo and send it to success@wattersgardencenter.com within 48
hours. We don't just offer a "resolution"; we offer a Success Guarantee. Whether it's a replacement or
expert advice to nurse it back to health, we've got your back.

🪴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.
