Product Details

This historic apple dating to New York around 1854 has captivated many which is why you can find it in home orchards here and there scattered throughout the United States. It has a distinctive conical shape and it's thin yellow skin blushes and striped red. The snow white flesh is excellent for eating fresh and cooking but you have to pick them early because they get mealy quick. It normally ripens slowly over a month in September but this tree grows in the shade at 3200' and ripened in October. It was a real pleasure finding this beauty!

The Grandmother tree grows in Dutch Flat California and is one of 6 apples in a large planting of about 100 Bartlett Pear Trees. Dutch Flat was an important stagecoach stop in the mid 1860s. Mining and timber harvesting were huge industries for the area but it also boasted a rich intellectual and acting culture where even Mark Twain had visited and performed at their historic Opera House.
