| Lore | This tree is grafted with five apple varieties to please varied palettes and extend the harvest season in today's smaller gardens: Gala, from New Zealand, has red-orange skin, very crisp white flesh with a tangy-sweet flavor, ripening in September; Honeycrisp with its large red, crisp, deliciously sweet fruit, well-suited for fresh eating and cooking, and equally suited for pressing for cider, also ripening in September; the Red McIntosh with juicy, sweet-tart flesh great fresh eating and sauce, ripening mid-September to early October; the popular Fuji with an exceptional, spicy, crisp sweetness, typically ripening in October; and Braeburn, a versatile, flavorful, bi-colored, variety with crisp sweetness that is easily used for fresh eating, cooking, and juicing, ripening in October. |
