Pink Lady Apple Tree

Buy Pink Lady Apple Trees for sale at Advanced Nursery Growers in DeFuniak Springs, Florida. Pink Lady Apple, botanically known as Malus domestica ‘Cripps Pink’, is a popular apple variety known for its crisp texture, firm juicy flesh, sweet-tart flavor, and beautiful pink-red blush over a yellow-green background.

Pink Lady is the brand name commonly used for the Cripps Pink apple. This variety was developed in Australia from a cross between Golden Delicious and Lady Williams. The fruit is usually medium-sized, firm, crisp, and refreshing, with a balanced sweet-tart flavor that makes it excellent for fresh eating, slicing, salads, baking, desserts, and storage.

This apple is loved by customers for its pretty color, crisp bite, and long-keeping quality. Pink Lady is especially popular as a fresh-eating apple, but it can also be used in the kitchen for baking and desserts because of its firm texture.

Pink Lady Apple Trees should be planted with realistic expectations in warm Southern climates. While some sources describe it as lower chill than many traditional apples, it also needs a long growing season and dependable bloom timing. In North Florida, fruit production may vary depending on winter chill, late freezes, pollination, summer stress, disease pressure, and the specific planting site.

Like most apple trees, Pink Lady needs full sun, well-drained soil, good air movement, regular pruning, fruit thinning when needed, and compatible pollination. It should be planted near another compatible apple variety with overlapping bloom time for best fruit set.
