Best Answers

Apple trees (Malus domestica) are deciduous trees that grow throughout all U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones, although different varieties grow better in different climates. When left to their own devices, apple trees can easily reach 30 feet or more in height. read more

Apple trees are propagated by grafting an apple tree stem to a root system. These root systems determine what size the tree will be at maturity. Apple trees grown on standard root stocks are generally reserved for commercial orchards and reach heights of 25 to 30 feet tall. read more
