Honeycrisp (white flags) 85 Trees

Sweet, tart flavor that varies depending on maturity of apple. Great for eating fresh, baked into a crisp or pie, as applesauce, or apple butter.

Spartan (red flags, 31 trees)

Macintosh cross, with crisp and juicy texture that softens a bit after picking. Excellent for eating fresh and cooking; stores well.

Goodland (yellow flags, 15 trees)

Sweet and tart, crisp flesh. Excellent for eating and delicious applesauce.
Stores well.

Kerr Crab (purple flags, 4 trees)

This crab-apple works well for jelly, juice, baking and even for fresh eating, as it is firm, crisp and juicy, with a very good sweet-tart flavor. It is small size and dark purple-red color. They are ripe late in the season, usually October. They work very well in cider blends and are excellent keepers, up to 6 months when refrigerated.

Wealthy (blue flags, 10 trees)

Good eaten out of hand, makes good applesauce and cider, also nice baked into a crisp.
 

Goodmac (lime flags, 10 trees)

Another Macintosh cross. Great eaten out of hand and juices well, too. Stores well.

Haralson (dark green flag, 3 trees)

Sweet, tart flavor that varies depending on maturity of apple. Great for eating fresh, baked into a crisp or pie, as applesauce, or apple butter.

Liberty (orange flags, 27 trees)

 Juicy with a great flavor, makes nice pink applesauce and good cider.
