Alkmene Apple

The Alkmene Apple is a compact and hardy apple variety known for its juicy, aromatic fruit with a sweet-tart flavor, reminiscent of a Cox apple. This award-winning apple variety ripens early, making it perfect for a September harvest and ideal for both fresh eating and baking. Alkmene requires a pollination partner from Group 2-4 to bear fruit, and it shows moderate resistance to common apple diseases. Suitable for small gardens and containers when grafted on dwarfing rootstock, it can reach 2-4 meters (6.5-13 feet) tall and spreads 2-3 meters (6.5-10 feet). With low maintenance needs and a delightful flavor, Alkmene is a perfect addition for any garden enthusiast seeking a reliable and flavorful apple tree.
