Triumph®
Semi-Dwarf Apple Tree

A luscious cross of Honeycrisp and Liberty, Triumph is incredibly juicy, crisp and sweet with just the right amount of tart. With flavors of ‘honey and elderflower,’ we loved our 2021 taste test where Triumph was described as ‘dynamic’ ‘flavor explosion’ and ‘my new favorite apple!’ A delectable mid-season apple with impressive disease resistance, Triumph ripens from late September through early October here in Zone 5. If you’ve never heard of Triumph, you’re not alone — and not for long! Formerly known as MN80, Triumph is a brand new release from University of Minnesota, fall of 2021. Triumph is the best of both worlds with flavors from Honeycrisp and resilience from Liberty, including resistance to apple scab and less susceptibility to bitter pit. So far, no signs of fire blight! Triumph also stores well into the winter and is hardy to zone 4.

Our Triumph Semi-Dwarf Apple Trees are bareroot nursery stock, and are graded to a minimum of 36” tall when Fall-dug from the nursery. All of our Semi-Dwarf Apple varieties are grafted onto semi-dwarf Geneva apple rootstocks, making them easier to pick, prune and maintain than standard sized trees. Proven to be cold hardy, as well as resistant to Fireblight, Phytophthora and replant disease, Geneva semi-dwarf rootstocks induce fruit bearing in just a few years. Keeping most Apple varieties to between 10 and 12 feet tall at maturity, our semi-dwarf Apple trees will usually require support from staking or trellising throughout their lifespan. The reduced tree size allows trees to be spaced 8 to 15 feet apart if planted in a row.

And Friends, several Fruition tree varieties & rootstocks are patented, including this variety and the rootstock it is grafted onto — to learn more hop in here.

Triumph needs another Apple variety nearby for Pollination! All of the Apples we offer are compatible pollination partners.
