I love apples and I would love to grow apple trees this was great info. Thank You :)

Yes, another McIntosh descendant (and a good one).

We had lots of spots on about half of them this year... a very rainy summer and spring here. https://steemit.com/homesteading/@offgridlife/my-home-grown-empire-apples

Still looking good. "I don't care about spots on my apples. Leave me the birds and the bees."

Excellent. I did not know that!
