Features
Apple trees will spawn naturally in the world in Forest, Dark Forest, and Flower Forest biomes. Each tree has a handful of apple bearing leaves, usually around three, whose apples can be picked when ripe. Regular oak leaves and dark oak leaves will no longer drop apples.
Apple Growth
Apples grow from a tree's apple-bearing-leaves in three growth stages: unripe, ripe, and fallen. Apples grow one stage each Minecraft day (real-time 20 minutes), meaning that an apple is produced every real-time hour.
In the "unripe" stage, apples on the tree are small and cannot be picked yet. In the "ripe" stage, the apple is large and can be picked by right clicking. In the "fallen" stage, the apple will drop as an item and the leaf will have no visible apple until the "unripe" stage is reached again. The fallen apple items can be picked up by hoppers or any other means.
Apple Tree Saplings
Apple bearing leaves have a 75% chance of dropping an apple tree sapling upon breaking it. Apple tree saplings can be placed and grown just like normal trees, given proper clearance. New apple trees will always spawn with ripe apples, ready to be picked.
Apple tree saplings can also be bought from Wandering Traders for five emeralds.

Golden Apple Trees
Very rarely, a Golden Apple Tree can be found naturally generating in the forest biomes. These trees can only spawn during world generation, and have no saplings. Their leaves grow golden apples every 12 days (real time 4 hours). Golden Apple Trees also very slowly grow golden roots, transmuting stone and dirt beneath into golden ore once every few hours. The roots can permanently be killed by mining destroying the very top gold ore block that generates directly below the tree trunk.
Compatibility
Apple tree saplings can be rooted with Podzol Rooting Soil
Technical Details
Apple Trees have the same space requirements to grow as vanilla oak trees.
Apple Tree's shape and location when naturally occurring is seed random, being the same between two worlds with the same seed. Apple trees grown from a sapling are fully random, yielding a different tree shape and apple distribution each time.
