    Larry,

    Try Fuji apples. The best.

    Some have complained that these are too sweet. No such thing as “too sweet” in my book. Unless you are talking about lemons and limes!!

    Hi Larry and friends

    Just thought I would let you know about the McIntosh.

    McIntosh apple

    Apples are Canada’s most important fruit crop, and the McIntosh variety is a Canadian original. French settlers brought apples to Port Royal, N.S., as early as 1606 and from there, apple cultivation spread inland. In 1811, John McIntosh, who immigrated to Canada in 1796, discovered an abandoned stand of apple trees near present-day Dundela, Ont. He transplanted some of the trees to his own land, and one in particular produced superior fruit — this was the birth of the McIntosh apple. In 1835 his son, Allan, learned the technique of grafting, moving the family’s apple production to a grand scale. That first McIntosh tree lived until 1910, and bore fruit for more than 90 years.
