The Beacon Apple, Malus 'Beacon', is a juicy bright red, medium sized apple that is wonderful for eating. Its flesh is mildly acid. The Beacon is a hardy, heavy bearing tree, with the fruit having a short storage life. It is a good apple for eating fresh or cooking. It ripens mid to late August and is susceptible to fire blight. Plant about a month after the first killing frost in the fall or about a month before the last killing frost in the spring. Select a planting site that has good air, drainage, full sunlight and deep, well drained soil.
