This means that they are self-fertile, and dont require other adjacent trees to bloom and produce fruit. However, Granny Smith apple trees do best with a cross pollinator such as Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, or Fuji. The juicy, white flesh with lovely, bright green skin (occasionally with a subtle, pink blush) is likewise energizing, with a crisp, tart flavor.
