Description

Red fleshed, purple skinned apple. Flowers are pink and so the tree makes a nice ornamental. This is a fresh eating apple only for real tart lovers, otherwise it should be reserved for cooking, and particularly fine hard and sweet ciders.  Skinless sauces are pink and delicious. Cold hardy to at least zone 3, so a good choice for the coldest climates. Bears early in life. Some publications list this as Almata Crabapple, but in truth a properly thinned tree will produce full sized apples.

Consulting
We do site visits, help with soil and other tests, and planning. Included are written plans for the implementation and day to day operations of your future of existing plantings. Fees vary according to the extent of the operation. Contact us for further info.

Tree Pruning
Proper pruning ensures a healthier tree, improves fruit size and increases fruit yield. Fruit trees should be pruned during winter dormancy. We’ll prune individual trees or an entire orchard.

Planting
We offer services for those who would like assistance in planting and/or maintaining trees and help with everything from staking trees to trellising grapes and berries. We will show you the proper procedures for caring for your home orchard or do the maintenance for you.

Custom Grafting
In addition to grafting the fruit trees we sell, we also offer custom grafting services. We can graft a hard to find cultivar, a reproduction from your own tree, or we can graft onto an existing tree on your property. New trees can be sent right away or grown a year here.
