Description
A historic cultivar whose name has been forgotten to time. Currently does not match to any known cultivar in the DNA dataset. However, several old trees remain in the Miller and Welty historic orchards in Weber Canyon, Mancos, Colorado where they have resisted pest, disease, and drought for over 100 years. A green, all purpose apple sometimes blushed red. Ripens in October. Triploid.
This is one of MORP’s endangered Guardian Trees. We encourage you to grow it and add it to Fruit RegisTREE to help with our preservation efforts.
