🍎 Dorsett Golden Apple Tree

Bring a touch of the tropics to your garden with the Dorsett Golden Apple Tree (Malus domestica 'Dorsett Golden'), one of the best apple varieties for warm climates. This early-bearing tree produces crisp, golden-yellow apples with a sweet tropical flavor—perfect for fresh eating, juicing, or baking.

Originally discovered in the Bahamas, this variety thrives where most apples can’t, requiring only 100–200 chill hours to set fruit. It pairs perfectly with the Anna Apple Tree for cross-pollination and abundant harvests.
