Fireside Apple Tree
USDA Certified Organic The Fireside apple tree originates from Minnesota where it has many admirers. The Fireside apple was developed in the early 1940's when the country listened to Roosevelts' "Fireside Chats" which likely beget its name. This large apple is extremely hardy. The crisp, juicy, sweet, greenish-white flesh is not flat or mealy. Flame orange striped skin over a rich yellow undercover. It is long keeping and flavorful. The Fireside aroma often fills the room when left out on the counter for the day. Demonstrates some resistance to cedar-apple rust, excellent keeper and cold hardy.
