Gala apples are crisp， sweet apples covered in a thin yellow to orange skin， highlighted with pink to red stripes that vary in hue dependent upon the apples maturity. Their dense flesh is creamy yellow， offering a mildly sweet flavor and floral aroma. Gala's that are allowed to reach the peak of their sweetness on the tree will have a deeper red hue and a slightly sweeter flavor. They are small to medium in size and ripen in August. At maturity， the Gala apple reaches a height and width of 15 ft. to 20 ft. They are excellent for eating fresh， salads， sauce， pies， baking， and freezing. Gala apples require 500 chill-hours and require a pollinator such as Granny Smith， Red Delicious， Fuji， and Jonathan. The tree is shipped in a #1 gal. pot with a minimum tree height of 12 in. and is hardy in USDA zones: 4-8.
