| Lore | This tree is grafted with five apple varieties to please varied palettes and extend the harvest season in today's smaller gardens: Akane, a sweet, rich, early season dessert apple, excellent for fresh eating and drying, ripening late summer; Chehalis, a large yellow-green, pink blushed apple with crisp, juicy, sweet medium-textured flesh, a great apple for fresh eating and baking, ripens in late summer to early fall; 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 early fall; the versatile dessert apple, Spartan, a sweet, juicy midseason hybrid with wonderful fine texture suitable for baking, sauces, and eating fresh, ripens in mid to late fall, and has excellent storage capacity; and Liberty, with red, crisp and refreshing, juicy fruit, ready to harvest in mid to late fall. |
