“ooOOooooOooo! that sparkle!’ exclaimed Chelsey at our 2022 tasting! Indeed, Royal Crimson Topaz is one of our new favorite apples, deliciously resilient, beloved for crisp snow white flesh and brilliant sweet-tart scrumptiousness. We love them straight from the tree as well as in apple strudel, which is its Czech claim to fame, from which this gem hails. We also love that Royal Crimson Topaz is slow to turn brown once cut, making it great for salads and pre-cut kid snacks. Fabulous in fall, Crimson Topaz stores 3 to 4 months in the cellar, allowing the important and prolonged consumption of your favorite apple pastries…!
Our Royal Crimson Topaz Semi-Dwarf Apple Trees are bareroot nursery stock, and are graded to a minimum of 30” tall when Fall-dug from the nursery. All of our Semi-Dwarf Apple varieties are grafted onto semi-dwarf Geneva apple rootstocks, making them easier to pick, prune and maintain than standard sized trees. Proven to be cold hardy, as well as resistant to Fireblight, Phytophthora and replant disease, Geneva semi-dwarf rootstocks induce fruit bearing in just a few years. Keeping most Apple varieties to between 10 and 12 feet tall at maturity, our semi-dwarf Apple trees will usually require support from staking or trellising throughout their lifespan. The reduced tree size allows trees to be spaced 8 to 15 feet apart if planted in a row.
And Friends, several Fruition tree varieties & rootstocks are patented, including the rootstock that this variety is grafted onto — to learn more hop in here.
Royal Crimson Topaz needs another Apple variety nearby for Pollination! All of the Apples we offer are compatible pollination partners.
