Because Missouri's climate is favorable for fire blight, powdery mildew, scab, and cedar apple rust, disease-resistant cultivars are recommended to minimize the need for spraying fungicides. The best apples to grow in your region include the following: Enterprise, Goldrush, Jonafree, Liberty, Pristine ,Redfree, and Williams' Pride. You will need two different cultivars for pollination.
