Malus domestica 'Alkemene'

This Cox's Orange cross from Germany has become a favorite at the WSU Mt. Vernon fruit testing station for its many superior qualities. It has a wonderful flavor that combines sweet and tart flavors. It bears heavy crops of red-orange, conical fruit annually in September, and it has good resistance to scab. Since it has an upright growth habit, it fits in smaller gardens.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • Would two of these trees pollinate each other or is another variety required and if so do you have a recommendation? Thanks in advance!

    You will need a different trees in bloom group 1 or bloom group 2 for cross pollination. Refer to the Apple Growing Guide for a full run down of pollination and bloom charts.

  • What is meant by needs a pollenator?

    This apple is self-sterile, meaning it cannot pollinate itself. You need a pollenizer, another tree with compatible pollen, to make fruit possible.
