Gala Apple Tree β 1 Year Old, Start Your Own Orchard π±
Plant a Tree That Will Feed Your Family for Decades
Imagine stepping into your backyard every September and picking crisp, sweet Gala apples right off your own tree. Thatβs exactly what youβre investing in today. This 1-year-old Gala apple tree, organically grown at Paradise Fields, is your starting point for a productive, beautiful backyard orchard.
Gala is one of the most widely grown and beloved apple varieties in the world β and for good reason. Itβs the apple that disappears fastest from the fruit bowl, the one kids reach for first, and the variety that works in almost every situation from fresh snacking to baking to juicing.
π About the Gala Apple
The Gala was developed in New Zealand in the 1930s and has since become a global favourite. Itβs known for its consistent sweetness, satisfying crunch, and approachable flavour that appeals to all ages. Unlike more complex or tart varieties, Gala is reliably pleasant β never too sharp, never too bland.
