Wild Apple Trees

If you click on the pictures, you will see many variations of fruit coming from dolgo seedlings. These trees will produce crabapples edible to grouse, turkeys, and, most importantly, the white-tailed deer. You will see many variations amongst each tree, such as fruit size, drop times, taste, disease resistance. Trees grown from malus dolgo will typically improve the disease resistance and produce a great abundance of crab apples.

Suitable for plant hardiness zones 3 - 8.   Note: These Are Dolgo X Dolgo. You will see variations from the original Dolgo but variations that make significant habitat improvements! You can see in the pictures the different variations of fruit grown from Dolgo. These can be grown in tree tubes and when a tree of this vigor is to be magnified in mass plantings allows for something exceptional if you're looking for that crabapple thicket with fruit constantly dropping.
