Commandé en 2018, aujourd'hui 2023, toujours pas l'ombre d'une fleur... Il a cependant une jolie couleur de feuillage un peu cuivré que n'ont pas mes autres pommiers.

Description
The Maggy® Apple Tree is a medium-vigorous variety with good productivity. It produces medium-sized, blood-red fruits. Their magnificent red flesh is veined with white. It is crisp and sweet-tart. The Maggy® Apple Tree is not self-fertile.
The apple tree is native to Europe, particularly in France where its presence has been documented since antiquity. The Maggy® Apple Tree is a recent variety of apple selected for its red flesh.
The Maggy® Apple Tree has a semi-erect habit, giving it a tall and elegant appearance. It is very productive, and thinning is essential at the start of fruiting to prevent small fruit size and the occurrence of diseases.
Its foliage is composed of very large, ovate leaves, slightly fuzzy and brownish-green on the upper side, whitish-green on the lower side, deeply toothed.
The white flowering occurs in April. The flowering is not afraid of frost. Therefore, the apple tree is suitable for cultivation in all regions. Self-sterile, the presence of apple trees with simultaneous flowering is necessary. The varieties 'Reine des Reinettes' and 'Golden' are the most suitable.
Fruit production begins in late September. The fruits are medium-sized, blood-red. Their magnificent red flesh is veined with white. It is crisp and sweet-tart.
These apples are particularly good for eating fresh or in pastries. They can also be used for compotes, cooked dishes, jams, jellies and in savory dishes, in combination with Normandy cheeses, for example.

Planting and care
Choose a sunny location for your Maggy ® Apple Tree, the soil can be slightly chalky or acidic but not excessively so. Dig a wide planting hole at least 3 times the size of the root ball. Simultaneously add organic matter (soil, compost) and a base fertilizer such as crushed horn. Do not bury the graft collar. Stake if necessary. Water abundantly, even in winter, even if it rains. Fruit trees are ideally planted between October and March, outside of the freezing period. Container-grown plants can be planted year-round, except during periods of high heat or frost.
You can add a small handful of wood ash during winter, rich in potash, to improve fruiting. Watch out for potential aphid attacks during the season. A white powdery mildew fungus may appear on the leaves in summer, but it does not harm fruit development in gardens. Harvest takes place in September. Only keep the picked fruits. Store apples with the stem pointing downwards, on shelves or in crates. Choose a preferably completely dark, dry, cool location, but frost-free.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).

In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a (East Coast and Midlands: Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny, Portlaoise). It will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the north-west (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal, Westport), delay planting by 1 to 2 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 1 to 2 weeks in autumn compared to the dates given, preferably choosing periods without strong winds.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (Wicklow Mountains, Macgillycuddy’s Reeks, Connemara, Killarney), it is best to plant in spring (April–May) or autumn (September–October), avoiding periods of waterlogged soil in winter and strong winds, which pose the main risk to newly planted trees in these areas.
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to regions in USDA Zone 9a, such as the East Coast and Midlands, including Dublin, Wexford, Waterford, Kilkenny and Portlaoise.
This will vary depending on where you live:
- On the west coast and in the northwest (Galway, Limerick, Sligo, Donegal and Westport), it will be delayed by one to two weeks compared to the given dates, due to stronger Atlantic winds and less spring sunshine.
- In the inland hills and plateaus (the Wicklow Mountains, the Macgillycuddy's Reeks, Connemara and Killarney), flowering will be delayed by two to three weeks. Flowering mainly occurs between May and July, with the limiting factors being less frost and more of the excessive humidity, strong winds and lack of sunshine that are characteristic of these areas.
