Fruit First apple

[Murt]

I picked my first ripe apple of the year today
It was a Pristine and for such an early apple the taste and texture were surprisingly good
It is a young tree --maybe 4-5 years old and had about 8 apples on it

Just googled it, looks similar to a Lodi apple.

I am happy--I planted a wide variety of trees and cultivars in an effort to have fresh fruit from June until nearly December

Stark says it is good for fresh eating--sauce and cooking IIRC
