  • Yields ripe fruit typically between July and August
  • Needs a compatible cultivar — growing within 100' of the tree for standard, 50' for semi-dwarf and 20' for dwarf varieties — to ensure pollination
  • Can be pollinated with early harvest, red Jonathan or a variety from a different apple family
  • Bears fruit in 6–10 years if standard sized; the semi-dwarf tree bears in 4–6 years, the dwarf in 3–4 years
  • Blooms early in the season, with white or pink flowers
  • Is available in standard, semi-dwarf and dwarf sizes
  • Requires regular watering
  • Has a chill hours (CU) requirement of 800–1000 (chill hours are the average hours of air temperature between 32° and 45° F in a typical winter season)

Highlights

This dependable, productive apple tree provides an early-season harvest of yellowish-green apples. The soft, white flesh and sweet-tart taste make the Lodi great for pies and applesauce. While not a long keeper in the refrigerator, these apples will freeze nicely.

When planting these trees, be sure to include other apple varieties such as early harvest or red Jonathan to ensure pollination.

Sun Preference

Full Sun

Soil Preference

Moist, Well Drained

Wildlife Value

Apples are eaten by a variety of birds and mammals. The leaves and branches are browsed. The trees can be destroyed by rodents and rabbits girdling the stem or trunk. The nectar and/or pollen provides nutrition for bees in early to late spring.
