Four heirloom apples on one living wall, a fruiting focal point that’s part orchard, part garden art, all bragging rights
FEATURES:
- Four apple varieties on one tree for a longer harvest window and more flavor variety
- Espalier-trained form that grows flat against a wall or fence for a clean, architectural look
- Spring bloom display in white to soft blush-pink for classic orchard beauty
- Perfect for small spaces: big fruiting potential without needing a full orchard
- Ideal for sunny walls and patios where reflected heat helps ripen fruit
- Fall color in golden-yellow tones before leaf drop for a warm seasonal finish
- Varieties include: Tydeman's Late Orange, Spitzenburg, Golden Russet, and Newtown Pippin
- Hand Selected; Fresh from the Grower
- Ships on our trucks because the size of the tree - does not fit in a box.
Bower & Branch Landscape Design Tip:
Espalier is where function meets style. Treat it like a piece of garden architecture: keep the area around it simple, gravel, clipped herbs, or low perennials, so the lines stay crisp. And here’s the secret sauce: a sunny wall adds warmth that leading to better ripening and sweeter fruit, so “pretty placement” can also be “smart placement.”
Growth Facts
- Hardiness Zone: 5-8
- Mature Height: 6-8' tall trained
- Mature Width: 6-10' wide trained
- Exposure: Full Sun
- Spacing: 6-10' tall

Why plant Espalier Heirloom Collection Fruiting Apple (four varieties)?
This is the tree for people who want their landscape to be both beautiful and delicious. The 4-in-1 Heirloom Collection is an espalier apple trained into a flat, structured shape, so it looks like living architecture, clean lines, intentional form, and a little “European garden moment” built right in. But the real magic is that it produces four different apple varieties on one tree, giving you a broader range of flavor and an extended harvest season without needing multiple trees.
In spring, it blooms in white to soft blush-pink, then spends the season doing the satisfying work of growing fruit you can actually pick. It’s equal parts ornamental and productive, which means you’re not just planting a tree, you’re planting an experience. (And yes, it’s absolutely okay to feel a little superior when guests ask where you bought your “apple wall.”)
How to use Espalier Heirloom Collection Fruiting Apple (four varieties) in the landscape?
Plant it along a sunny fence, wall, or freestanding trellis where the espalier form can be appreciated as a living design feature and the branches can be supported as they grow. It’s a perfect choice near patios and outdoor dining areas, where spring blooms feel romantic and the fruit is close enough to snack on while pretending you’re “just checking ripeness.” Use it to soften hardscape edges, define a garden room, or add privacy without bulk, since it stays trained flat instead of taking up lawn space. For best fruiting, choose a site with strong sun and good airflow, and keep the area below it tidy with low groundcovers or a clean mulch ring so the shape stays the star.
Frequently Asked Questions
Apple blossoms typically open in white to soft blush-pink tones in spring, creating a classic orchard-style bloom display.
Because this tree includes multiple apple varieties grafted onto one espalier form, it often improves pollination within the tree itself. For the most consistent fruit set, strong sun, good airflow, and a pollinator-friendly garden nearby are always helpful.
Prune to maintain the trained framework, typically in late winter while dormant, then do light summer trimming to keep new growth tidy along the horizontal arms. Remove shoots that grow outward away from the espalier plane, and keep ties/supports snug but not tight so the branches stay aligned without being constricted.
