OUR STORY
Peter Gideon spent the family's last few dollars for a bushel of apple seeds. One of these seeds . crossed with a Siberian Crab Apple, which produced the Wealthy apple, in 1868, who he named after his wife.Horticulturalist Peter Gideon grew the first Wealthy apple tree in 1868. Gideon sent the family's last dollars to an apple grower in Bangor, Maine, and got a bushel of apple seeds in return. The Wealthy apple tree was the earliest apple to survive in the Minnesota climate. Pale yellow fruit and striped with red. Ripens to red for fresh eating; earlier picking can be used for pies, sauces and preserves. Flesh flavor tastes of strawberry. The Wealthy apple tree is a small compact tree that bears heavily and very cold hardy, but also fruits in low chill locations. The Wealthy apple tree blooms over a long period, making it a superb pollinator. Grows in USDA zones 4-10. It is self-fertile. Trees are bench grafted 1/4-3/16 inch diameter and 1 1/2 to 2 feet tall when shipped.
