..And I do too. I started picking some of the riper ones today, but will let some of the others hang for a few more days. I love the taste of this apple, and it laughs at FB and CAR.

Thanks Merle. Yes, it is a very healthy tree. I have another young one that had 5 or 6 apples on it this year, and it looks as healthy as this one. This is a variety that I can highly recommend for both disease resistance and taste. As you will recall, I don't do any spraying, so my apples will be less than perfect looking.

The only thing I have seen is an occasional apple that just seems to rot prematurely. I probably saw 5 on the whole tree, but the rest look just fine. I'm not sure what causes that, but I have also seen it on Liberty at my place.

I've never seen the first hint of fireblight, cedar apple rust, powdery mildew or Scab on these trees.

What does it taste like. Any way to describe it?

Crisp and a nice blend between sweet and tart, leaning toward the sweet side. It was developed by the PRI breeding program.

I've been wanting one of those but not many places sell them that I see. Where did you get your?

Mine came from Big Horse Creek Farm.
