Exquisite dessert fruit ripens in late October and keeps until March. Won “Best Quality Eating” award at the 2022 Wild Apple Exhibition in western Mass. Large, roundish-oblate, deep red and russeted fruit. Flavor described by Matt Kaminsky in the Exhibition’s catalog as “crisp fine-grained juicy and snappy…clean fruity finish with superior aromatics. A true knockout.” Seedling selected on Super Chilly Farm by John Bunker and then-apprentice Emily Skrobis, who originally named the tree “Good Girl, Scout” to honor John’s beloved collie. We’re awaiting DNA profiling to confirm Scout’s parentage.
Blooms mid-late season. Likely hardy to Z3. Maine Grown. NEW! (Standard: 3–6' bare-root trees)
