Since flowering generally extends for several weeks, there is some overlap between the early and late blooming varieties. Maximum fruit set will be achieved by avoiding a matching of early and late bloomers. Use the chart below, to find a successful pollinator by looking in the adjacent three columns for the variety you want to pollinate. For example: Lodi will set best with another early bloomer like Liberty, Spartan, William’s Pride, or Akane. The late blooming Chisel Jersey would bear well with Northern Spy, Gold Rush or Wolf River as pollinators. We normally carry the highlighted varieties. Bolded varieties require special consideration regarding pollination. *** - indicates this apple is a Triploid. Triploids are considered pollen sterile because they cannot pollinate other varieties. Plant with 2 varieties that are able to cross-pollinate each other OR if limited on space plant your Triploid apple tree with a self-fertile + - indicates this apple is SELF-FERTILE, requiring no other tree as a pollinator. However, most self-fertile varieties will produce better with another apple variety nearby.

ADAMS PEARMAIN Herefordshire, England 1862 Oct 15 Nov Mar 14 Adams Pearmain is a an old-fashioned late dessert apple, one of the most popular varieties in Victorian England. It has an attractive 'pearmain' shape. This is a fairly dry apple - which is perhaps not regarded as a desirable attribute today. In spite of this it is actually a very enjoyable apple, with a rich aromatic flavour which in apple terms is usually described as Although it had 'shelf appeal' for the Victorian housewife, its autumnal colouring is probably too subdued to compete with the bright young things of the modern supermarket shelves. Perhaps this is part of its appeal; it recalls a bygone era where subtlety of flavour was appreciated - a lovely apple to savour in front of an open fire on a cold winter's day. Tree hardy. Does will in all soils, even clay. AERLIE RED FLESH (Hidden Rose, Mountain Rose) California 1930’s 19 20 20 Cook Oct 20 15 An amazing red fleshed apple, discovered in Aerlie, Oregon, which may be the best of all red fleshed varieties and indeed would be an outstandingly delicious apple no matter what color the flesh is. A choice seedling, Aerlie Red Flesh has a beautiful yellow skin with pale whitish dots, but it is inside that it excels. Deep rose red flesh, juicy, crisp, hard, sugary and richly flavored, ripening late (October) and keeping throughout the winter. The late Conrad Gemmer, an astute observer of apples with 500 varieties in his collection, rated Hidden Rose an outstanding variety of top quality.
Watergore Trial Orchard

NACM Short Report 5.5 Liz Copas 2005 WATERGORE TRIAL ORCHARD NOTE This trial site no longer exists and unfortunately some of the LA Disease Resistant seedling were grubbed out. Propagating material is still available of most of the other cultivars mentioned. SUMMARY Planted 1990 Main orchard planted to double rows N/S of Major, Ashton Bitter, Ellis Bitter and White Jersey at 18 x 8 on M25. This rootctock has proved rather too vigorous for the good soil on this site. In retrospect more effort was needed to control the early growth of these trees and induce cropping. The pruning trial [NACM 95/5/1] demonstrated some response to belated pruning to centre leader and bending or tying down strong lateral branches. This has served as a useful model for other orchards of these varieties. Planted 1995 Selected early harvesting seedlings from the Long Ashton [LA 1978] breeding program; 2 bittersweet, 4 sharps and 1 sweet, planted E/W on MM 106. Poor tree shape and excessively early flowering has ruled out many of these. The best are LA 13/2 and LA 13/7, Tremletts crosses with a strong resemblance to the parent but with some resistance to scab and mildew. Both need some initial tree training but could be kept annual. Planted 1996 Selected old varieties with some potential for bush orchards were planted on MM 106 . Of these the most promising are Broxwood Foxwhelp and possibly the other Foxwhelps [all bittersharps], also Don's Seedling [bittersweet] and Crimson King [sharp] as early harvesting varieties. Both Severn Banks [sharp] and Black Dabinett [bittersweet] could make useful late harvesting varieties.
— Granny Smith Apple —

— GRANNY SMITH APPLE — What are they? Granny Smith apples are famously green apples with a tart flavor that makes your mouth water. Originally from Australia, the apple has hard, light green skin and a crisp, juicy flesh. They are the best apples for baking your favorite apple pie recipe. Granny Smith apples don't brown as fast as other apples, which makes them perfect for fresh preparations, such as salads and salsas, or sliced and paired with cheese. When are they available? Granny Smith apples are harvested in September and October, but they are also available in winter, thanks to current storage conditions. What’s so cool about them? In 1891, "Granny" Anne Smith won the prize for cooking apples under the name Granny Smith’s Seedling at a horticultural show in Australia. Granny Smith is one of the best apples for baking pies because they do not change their natural shape once cooked due to the high acid content. When cool nights precede harvest, Granny Smith apples may develop a rosy pink blush. The Granny Smith Festival is held annually in Eastwood, a suburb of Sydney, Australia, to celebrate the apple. Why should I eat them? Granny Smith apples are packed with fiber, antioxidants, vitamin C, and phytonutrients. A medium apple has less than 100 calories and no sodium, fat or added sugar. One apple offers 4 g of fiber or 17% of the daily recommended value, which helps our bodies feel full longer. Last updated April 18, 2017 This institution is an equal opportunity provider. .

The census provides an important overview of apple production, and comparisons are made to previous censuses (2007, 2002 and 1997) where possible. The census surveyed all commercial orchards, defined as follows: - a production area of at least 0.2 hectares of apples, including cider apples - the fruit from the orchard is sold every year - the orchard is sprayed against pests/diseases every year, or maintained to organic standards Within the 45 growers, there are two organic growers. Production areas are based on areas planted up to March 2012.
Cosmic Crisp's Growth Is out of This World

- Advertisement - Cosmic Crisp's growth is out of this world 1 / 2 April 26, 2021 After a record-breaking sophomore year that hasn't finished, the Cosmic Crisp apple’s growth trajectory indicates it will launch to the top of the apple chart in no time. Nielsen data show monumental growth, reaching No. 11 in sales dollars in March, and No. 14 over the 52 weeks ending March 27. If retailers do not have a Cosmic Crisp apple program in place now, they are missing out on very important sales and customer expectations. “Cosmic Crisp volume is planned to more than double this fall, and double again for the 2022 harvest. This volume will rival current core variety volume, displacing mature varieties that are being replaced with higher color strains and higher flavor varieties,” said Catherine Gipe-Stewart, communications manager. “Cosmic Crisp is rising so quickly, it has potential to become a top-five variety at this time next year.” Nielsen data show a 595 percent increase in dollars and a 720 percent in volume over the four weeks ending March 27. In March alone, Cosmic Crisp earned the 11th spot with $4.3 million in sales and 1.8 million pounds, at an average price of $2.52 per pound, right in line with Honeycrisp at $2.55 per pound. Looking at a yearly perspective (last 52 weeks), Cosmic Crisp has earned $20 million in sales, with 7.7 million pounds. “Historically, apples like Cosmic Crisp take root in the Pacific region, and spread eastward like wildfire,” said Gipe-Stewart.
