Hello kami1a

About 80 years are considered the maximum for apple trees.
If individual copies become older, these are few exceptions.

If you leave such a tree to yourself, it loses years of life.

With proper care you can extend a tree life.

There is a professionally recommended and richly illustrated book by Hans-Thomas Bosch: “Crone care of old fruit trees”
It has no ISBN because it was actually made for internal seminar participants.
But maybe you can still get it directly from the editor.

The editor is: Competence Center for Fruit Building Lake

Yes, I agree.

They won’t be 100 – 200 years old.

Pear trees can become old. But at 100 years there is usually also close.

Hello,

The age of clearly over 100 years is definitely in it when it is a robust, old variety on a corresponding base. And I assume that a sensitive “high performance” on a weakly growing base would not have become “very old” at all!

Tip: let a new tree settle down. So you have a young tree where the fabric of your beloved specimen continues to live and grow.

The maximum age depends primarily on the base. Weak-growing documents have early yields, but the trees are not very old.

In the case of a classic high stem, which has been refined to a correspondingly strong-growing support (possibly seedling support), an apple tree can thus reach 100 years upwards. If there’s nothing in between, you say about 100-150 years in high tribes, but there are also methamlems with several hundred years.

Depending on the fact that most apple trees are in an average condition around the 100 years old or something below, if you are lucky, it can be up to 200 years or even more if the apple trees are in a very good condition, so that it is primarily important how healthy the trees are, but also what varieties the trees are, the soil quality also plays a role and the climate could play this role.

Normally, 50-80 years, under good conditions, should be 100 years or more. With us standing in the garden which are well 60 years old.

Here in Germany the apple trees are between 100-200 years old.

In Croatia, the Kima is better there are apple trees also between 300-400 years

I’d let the tree determine and build a new one.
