Mutsu Crispin Apple Trees – Set of 2 Bare Root Trees | 18–24 Inch Tall | Sweet Tart Apple Variety | Backyard Orchard Fruit Trees

Grow large, flavorful apples with these Mutsu (Crispin) Apple Trees, a popular orchard variety known for producing crisp, juicy apples with a balanced sweet-tart flavor. This listing includes two live bare root apple trees approximately 18–24 inches tall, ready to plant in your backyard orchard or garden.

Mutsu apples are especially loved by bakers because their firm, coarse-grained flesh holds its shape when cooked, making them ideal for pies, baking, applesauce, and fresh eating. The fruit is also notably larger than many other apple varieties, meaning fewer apples are needed for recipes.

These trees produce beautiful spring blossoms and can begin producing fruit relatively early when properly established. Bare root trees transplant well and quickly establish strong root systems in the soil.

Important: Mutsu (Crispin) apple trees are not self-fertile and require another compatible apple variety nearby for cross-pollination in order to produce fruit.

You will receive:
✔️ 2 live Mutsu (Crispin) apple trees
✔️ Height: approximately 18–24 inches
✔️ Bare root trees ready for planting
✔️ Healthy young orchard trees
