About this tree

The Honeycrisp Apple is prized for its signature crunch and sweet-tart, honeyed flavor straight off the branch. This semi-dwarf tree matures to a manageable 12-15 ft. tall and 10-12 ft. wide and is exceptionally cold-hardy across USDA zones 3-8. It blooms with fragrant white-pink flowers in spring and ripens its famous fruit in early fall. Plant in full sun with another apple variety nearby for pollination to enjoy bushels of homegrown apples.

Full planting & care

Planting+

Choose a spot with full sun and loamy, well drained soil. Dig a hole twice as wide as the root ball and just as deep, set the tree so the top of the root ball is level with the ground, backfill, and water in well. Space about 12 ft. - 15 ft. from other plants.

Watering+

Water deeply about once a week while it establishes, then ease off as roots take hold.

Fertilizing+

Feed in early spring with a balanced slow-release fertilizer formulated for trees and shrubs. A second light feeding in early summer supports vigorous growth. Avoid fertilizing late in the season.

Pruning+

Prune in late winter while dormant to remove any dead or crossing branches and to shape. Minimal pruning is needed otherwise.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a second tree for pollination?+

Yes. Honeycrisp needs a different apple or crabapple variety blooming nearby to set a full crop of fruit.

When will it bear fruit?+

Most trees begin producing within 2-4 years of planting, with fruit ripening in early fall.

How tall does it get?+

This semi-dwarf tree matures to a manageable 12-15 ft., making harvesting and pruning easy.

What zones does it grow in?+

Honeycrisp is very cold-hardy and reliable across USDA zones 3 through 8.
