Fuji (early) apple tree

Fuji (early) is listed in the RHS Plants for Pollinators

The popular crisp sweet Fuji apple is not easy to grow in cooler climates because it needs an exceptionally growing season. However there are a number of sports or variants of Fuji such as Beni Shogun, Rising Sun, and September Wonder, which feature the crisp sweetness of the original Fuji - but ripen up to 4 weeks earlier.

If you are in zones 5 or 6, or in an area such as the Pacific North West where the maritime climate moderates sunlight hours, early Fuji is more likely to succeed than the original late-season variety.
