The Apple Red Falstaff Fruit Tree by Direct Plants is an ideal choice for both novice gardeners and experienced orchardists looking for an established, 6ft tall tree that provides an immediate aesthetic and productive impact in the garden. Its primary benefit is its versatility and hardiness, allowing it to thrive in most soil types and garden positions, though prospective growers must be prepared to provide a very large container if they intend to keep it on a patio rather than planting it directly into the ground.

Yes, it is professionally grown in a 12-litre pot and arrives ready to be transferred to your garden or a larger container.
Yes, but you must move it to a container of at least 100 litres to allow the roots enough space to support the tree as it continues to grow.
The Red Falstaff is generally known for being a reliable cropper, but ensure there are other apple trees nearby to assist with pollination for the best yield.
It is best to plant while the tree is dormant (late autumn to early spring) to allow the roots to settle before the growing season.
While the tree is 6ft upon arrival, its final height will depend on the rootstock and pruning; it is typically a manageable size for most home gardens.
This is often a sign of overwatering or poor drainage. Ensure the tree is not sitting in standing water.
Stake the tree securely using a tree tie and post to prevent the root system from being disturbed while it anchors into the ground.
