The Braeburn Dwarf Apple Tree is one of New Zealand’s most popular apple varieties, valued for its crisp texture, juicy flesh, and balanced sweet-tart flavour. Its aromatic finish and exceptional eating quality make it a favourite for fresh eating, baking, and cooking.
This late-season variety is a reliable producer and offers excellent storage life, allowing fruit to remain fresh long after harvest. Braeburn performs best in areas that receive approximately 700 chilling hours during winter to ensure consistent flowering and fruit production.
The compact dwarf growth habit makes it ideal for home gardens, smaller sections, and lifestyle properties, while providing a generous harvest each season.
