Winecrisp’s outstandingly crisp fruity flavor comes from its Cox parentage. The skin is deep red. Resistant to scab and fireblight. M7 rootstock: These trees are grafted onto the semi-dwarfing M7 rootstock, so they will only grow 50-65% the size of a standard, full-sized apple tree. They are reliably productive, hardy, and quick to bear. They may need staking early in life. They are great where space is tight. BULK PRICING: Any combination of 10 or more apples (potted and/ or bare-root) will receive 10% off. - Apples thrive in Vermont. You need to have at least two different varieties for pollination; however, apples are common enough in Vermont that you can often get away with planting one if a neighbor has a few trees. Wild trees or crab apples growing nearby can also serve as pollinators. More pollen often means more and larger fruit. Plant in a well-drained spot with good sun. We grow and sell varieties that perform well in our climate and growing conditions. Varieties listed as “heirloom” originated before 1900. If you are planting a few trees, consider selecting varieties with different uses or ripening times. If you are planning to make hard cider, add a cider variety or two to blend with more typical dessert fruit.
