Description:The Red Fuji Apple Tree produces one of the most popular apple varieties worldwide, known for its superb sweetness, juicy texture, and dense flesh. The tree is moderately vigorous with a somewhat spreading habit, which makes it suitable for various training systems. It is particularly noted for its tolerance to different climatic conditions, thriving in both cool and warm temperate zones.
Fruit: Red Fuji apples are large with a striking red skin that may have a yellow blush. The flesh is firm, sweet, and very juicy, making them ideal for fresh eating, juicing, and cooking. They are particularly valued for their balance of sugar and acid, providing a consistently delightful eating experience.
Harvest: The harvest period for Red Fuji apples is typically in late October, though this can vary based on local climate conditions. The fruits are known for their long storage life and maintain their quality well into the winter and spring.
Pollination: Effective pollination is crucial for Red Fuji, with compatible pollinators including Gala, Granny Smith, and Jonathan. These varieties help ensure a good fruit set and enhance overall productivity.
Spacing: Optimal spacing for Red Fuji trees is about 3 to 4 meters between trees. This spacing allows for adequate sunlight penetration and air circulation, essential for healthy growth and fruit production. Mature trees typically reach about 4 meters in height.
Good to know: The Red Fuji is sought after for its excellent storability, often lasting up to 6 months in proper conditions without significant loss of texture or flavor. Additionally, its resistance to bruising and common apple diseases like apple scab and powdery mildew makes it a favored choice for growers focusing on sustainable and organic practices.

MM 9 (Dwarf)
M 9 is a dwarf rootstock suitable for high-density planting. It is resistant to the crown rot disease and moderately sensitive to the fire blight and wooly aphid. It is resistant to the illness of the tree tree and mildly susceptible to the blight of flames and wooly aphid. Throughout cultivation, it requires support systems. It should not be grafted on spur-type varieties such as Scarlett Spur, Redchief and Starkspur Golden. For the field, it should be recommended without limiting watering. It is moderately resistant to calcareous and heavy-textured soils. High crop quality, early fruit bearing and elevated efficiency out of a unit region within a brief span of moment are the most advantageous features M 9 offers to the plants.
MM 106 (Middle size)
It is a semi-dwarf rootstock, resistant to wooly aphid and is highly sensitive to disease of crown rot. For heavy-textured and argillaceous soils, it should certainly not be suggested. It has a closer and heavier root structure than rootstocks M9 and M26. Although it is more resistant to the climate than rootstocks M9 and MM 26, it should be chosen for frequent watering plants.For the gardens where MM 106 is grown, support devices are not needed. Within three or four years after planting, it becomes commercially profitable.
MM 111 (Large)
It is a semi-dwarf rootstock bigger than M106 and smaller than standard seedling rootstock. It is resistant to the illness of crown rot, wooly aphid and heavy-textured, argillaceous, calcareous plants with a pH scale above 7. Depending on the circumstances of care, it becomes commercially profitable within four or five years. When early flowering is desired, M 9 may be recommended as the rootstock between the system in some cases. When grafted on spur form and low strength varieties, it provides stronger outcomes.
