An 'orchard grade' is a tree that may be somewhat shorter, slightly crooked, or a bit scratched, or for some other reason is not a perfect front lawn specimen. These trees will work just as well in an orchard as a first or number one would, since they still produce the very same fruit.
Beautiful, high quality, very early red apple ranks high for scab resistance. Large, firm and juicy with great full-bodied flavour and crisp texture. Delightful fresh eating but also ideal for culinary usage – thin skin practically disappears when cooked. Wynoochee Early ripens over a 3 week period in August and will actually keep until Christmas in cold storage.
