This handcrafted model tree represents a naturally grown late-autumn apple tree with a broad, rounded crown. Most of the foliage has already turned to yellow, orange and brown tones, and the slightly thinned crown with more visible branches gives an authentic impression of the end of the season. The rich autumn colours make this tree ideal for designing orchards after harvest, gardens and tree rows along country roads and village streets on your model railway layout or diorama.
The cultivated apple tree (Malus domestica), prototype for this model, is a deciduous fruit tree that arose from hybrids of wild apples and is now grown in almost all temperate regions of the world. In Europe it shapes traditional orchards and modern fruit plantations, where trees depending on variety and training system usually reach heights of about 5 to 10, in old high-stem orchards up to around 15 metres. Choose the model height that matches your scale or follow our recommendation for your model railway gauge to recreate characteristic late-autumn apple trees in miniature.
