Malus domestica 'Gala' Apple

Malus domestica 'Gala', known as the Gala Apple, is a beloved apple cultivar prized for its sweet, aromatic fruit and attractive appearance. Originating from New Zealand, it grows 3–4 meters tall and 2–3 meters wide, featuring dark green foliage and fragrant white to pale pink spring blossoms.

This tree has a naturally upright to spreading habit and thrives in full sun. It requires moderate watering and regular late-winter pruning to maintain shape, airflow, and fruit production. Cross-pollination with varieties like ‘Granny Smith’ or ‘Fuji’ is essential for fruiting.

Gala apples are crisp, juicy, and sweet with a slight tartness, making them excellent for fresh eating, baking, and cooking. Ideal for home gardens, orchards, and even containers, the Gala apple tree combines beauty and productivity in any landscape.
