Default RE: apples and fruit trees

jhalfhill-

I wish I could tell you for sure - but most of out apples are "crosses" and wild seedlings -

The ones that hang on the trees a long time ar Spie Like Apples - (winter apples) and the areHard through October. Still they are sweet - and the ones that do drop are quickly ate.

The Macintosh type apples drop early and the bees really key in on in October as they decay - The deer like these type - it seems - but by hunting season - most are rotted or gone.

Others are Hard littlegreen little buggers - that Draw no attention from anything.

The Yellow apples - some with blush - really seem to be the sweet draw in October for us - I know this is vague - but I don't know how to ID all the apple varieties.
