Braeburn Apple
New Zealand
M9; M26; MM106
Late September – Early October
Braeburn was discovered in New Zealand by farmer O. Morgan in 1952 as a chance seedling. Today, it is one of the most important commercial apple varieties and a premium dessert apple. It is the first modern apple variety with a flavor closer to older, classic varieties. Braeburn is also one of the first bi-colored varieties, a trait now considered essential for commercial success.
It has a rich and complex flavor, rarely matched by other varieties. Crisp but not hard, very juicy. The flesh is easily bitten, and the thin skin seems to melt in the mouth. The taste is sharp and refreshing, with well-balanced sugars.
Medium-sized fruit (up to 220 g). The base skin color is yellowish-red, covered with a reddish blush on 60–80% of the surface. The flesh is crisp, firm, and has an excellent sweet-tart flavor.
Partially self-fertile. Good pollinators include: Fuji, Granny Smith, Gala, Idared, Red Delicious, Golden Delicious.

You can purchase seedlings of Apple Braeburn at our garden center in the nursery located at Gornjem Crnjelovu, Glavna 65a.
Upon collection of the goods (seedlings), the Agromedžik nursery no longer has the possibility of supervision or care, and therefore cannot provide any further guarantee. Since seedlings are living beings, it is not possible to give a guarantee even a day after they leave the nursery. We cannot influence their maintenance and care, and consequently their further growth and development.
Our plants regularly undergo phytosanitary and vegetative inspections, therefore we do not have diseased or infected plants.
Planting is done from late October to mid-April, avoiding periods of frost and drought.
Trim the roots, then the branches into 3 to 4 rings. At the beginning of March, cut the seedlings to a height of 80 - 120 cm.
Before planting, soak the plant in water for at least 2 - 3 hours.
Dig a hole, in the previously prepared soil, measuring 60 x 60 x 50 cm for the soil (40 x 40 x 40 cm) so that the roots and part of the stem are well placed, taking care that the grafting point is outside the soil.
Place the plant in the hole and cover it with dry soil, gently press it down so that it gets well between the roots.
Fertilizer and seedling roots must not be in direct contact.

Pour with 20-30 liters of water. During periods of drought in the first year of planting, it is necessary to water young seedlings more often.
Containerized seedlings can be planted throughout the year.
*Applies to bare root seedlings.
