If you order any of those varieties along with varieties that arrive in mid-December, your order will be delayed for shipment until mid-January unless you ask us to split your shipments and agree to pay any additional shipping charges resulting from two separate shipments.

Generally late blooming. Need full sun, well-drained soil, and moderate fertility. Thin fruit to maximize quality and size. Susceptible to codling moth, apple scab, powdery mildew, and gophers. Generally cross-fertile, which means that the variety is not pollinated by itself, but by a different variety of the same fruit. Three or more varieties are best. Harvest 3rd year. All varieties are semi-dwarf on M-111 rootstock, a good all-around choice for apples, except Newton Yellow Pippin, which is on standard apple rootstock (about 20—30' unpruned), Unpruned, semi-dwarf trees reach 85% of standard (about 15—25'), but by pruning you can keep your tree to any desired height.

AVAILABLE TO SHIP MID DECEMBER. For additional shipping & availability information, see below.
