Apple, Cortland ‘Royal Court’(TM)
Highly productive, cold-hardy tree that begins bearing at an early age.
Apples ripen in late-September / early-October with dark red skin and crisp,
white flesh that is juicy and sweetly tart. Flesh resists browning when cut,
making this an ideal choice for fresh eating, cooking, and baking. 12-15’
tall, 10-14’ spread. Grow in full sun. Plant size: 3/4” caliper $15 each
Note: Cortland needs another apple variety for pollination (such as
Honeycrisp(TM), below) and serves as a pollinator for others.
