Does anyone know which category of cider apples the wealthy apple falls under?
My FIL just bought a wealthy apple tree to plant up at our cottage. I'm wondering how it will turn out. It's a cross with half coming from a siberian crab. Good up to zone 2, and our place is on the edge between zone 3 and 4.
Dwarf rootstock I guess since he says it should get to about 12 feet.
I'm thinking it might be high acid, and high sweetness. Supposedly it makes a tart and tasty pie or sauce.
I'm just hoping that I don't have major issues with cedar apple rust. Lots of cedar up in the area where it will be planted. LOTS.
