The Granny Smith Apple Tree (Malus domestica ‘Granny Smith’) is a timeless favorite, prized for its bright green skin, crisp bite, and signature tart flavor. Whether grown for fresh eating, pies, baking, or wildlife attraction, this hardy apple variety delivers dependable harvests and long-lasting fruit that stores beautifully. Its bold, tangy taste makes Granny Smith one of the most versatile apples you can grow.
Granny Smith produces medium to large, firm apples that ripen from late summer into early fall, offering a refreshing contrast to sweeter varieties. The tree thrives in USDA Zones 5–8, developing into a strong, productive orchard tree with good resistance to common apple diseases. While cross-pollination is required for fruit set, yields are especially strong when planted near compatible pollinators such as Fuji, Gala, or Honeycrisp.
For growers seeking a hardy, easy-to-grow apple tree with classic flavor and proven performance, the Granny Smith Apple Tree is a must-have addition to home orchards, food plots, and backyard landscapes alike.
