Colorado Orange Apple Tree
This apple is our pride and joy among our apple collection! It hails from Fremont County in Colorado, and it was nearly lost to history until it was rediscovered in recent years. It’s a large apple with yellowish-orange skin, with blush where it’s exposed to the sun. It’s very yet crisp; a rich, high aromatic, sub-acid flavor, most exceedingly juicy. The flavor is quite unique and very distinct from any other known apple. It’s palatable in December and improves from then on to July (possibly the best storage apple!).
Root Stock: G969: 12-15ft, 15 ft between trees. Semi-dwarf, 12-15ft, resistant to fireblight, crown rot, and woolly apple aphid with good cold hardiness.
Sun: Full Sun
Region of Origin: Colorado, USA
Container Size: 3 gal
Caliper: <1/2"
