Originally a cross between McIntosh and Red Delicious this seedling variety is crisp, sweet, and juicy. Empire apples notably bruise and oxidize slower than most apples. The tree is hardy down to Zone 4 and has an approximate ripening week of the last week in September.
MM.111 Rootstock
Semi-Standard Rootstock that will produce a tree about 85% of full size. The tree will stand on its own and should outgrow the deer. We like this rootstock in heavier, wetter soils.
All Apples are Bare Root and will be shipped or ready for pickup in April 2026.
