Dolgo Crabapple
- *this tree will not attract deer during hunting season, it is a preseason attraction
- slow dropping the month of August
- 1 inch diameter, uniquely very sweet but also acidic flavored crabapple
- heavy bearing, but reliably biennial
- medium vigor
- this is a grafted tree onto full standard seedling rootstock
Do not believe the hype or reputation Dolgo crabapple has as a hunting tree, the reality is that it isn't a good one for this purpose. However, Dolgo is a disease resistant tree that bears a large crop every other year with a drop time the month of August in PA.
-The tree has an average growth rate but slower compared to the other varieties I sell. Despite this, what I like about this tree is that it grows steadily into a large tree that pumps out a huge crop of crabapples every other year. You only need one of these trees, in six years it will be pumping out so much fruit you will be glad you chose one for your property.
*This is a grafted tree on full standard seedling apple rootstock, chosen specifically to grow the tree as fast and large as possible. If there was a more vigorous rootstock out there, I would use it.
