12L Apple (Malus) Scrumptious ® 1.5m

An apple tree that settles in and rewards each season

The Scrumptious Apple Tree is a variety known for doing exactly what you hope it will. It establishes well, grows with a steady rhythm, and produces crisp, naturally sweet apples that are ready to pick and enjoy straight from the branch.

Once planted, it becomes part of the garden rather than something separate from it. Blossom in spring, fruit through late summer, and a sense of continuity that builds year after year.

Who this tree is for

This suits gardens where space may be limited but the intention is clear. It works well in smaller plots, patios or larger containers, offering a manageable way to grow your own fruit.

It is a good option for those who want something reliable without needing constant attention. Straightforward to care for, but still rewarding in what it gives back.

Choosing the right rootstock

This tree is available on three different rootstocks, each offering a slightly different balance of size and vigour. Choosing the right one depends on the space you have and how you would like the tree to grow.

• M27 – A very compact option, ideal for patios, containers or smaller gardens. Easy to manage and suited to restricted spaces.
• M26 – A semi-dwarfing rootstock that offers a little more growth while still remaining manageable. A good middle ground for most gardens.
• MM106 – A more vigorous rootstock suited to larger gardens, allowing the tree to develop more fully over time.

A dependable and easy-going variety

The apples are known for their sweetness and clean, crisp texture. They are just as good eaten fresh as they are used in the kitchen.

In spring, the tree produces soft blossom, followed by red-flushed fruit that develops through the warmer months. It is a consistent performer in UK conditions, making it a practical choice as well as an enjoyable one.
