    I bought this apple tree from Gurney's catalog. I have had it for five years. It produces tons of blossoms in spring and is loaded with apples. It is a small tree, around 7 ft tall. The weight of the apples makes the branches bend very bad. This would be a fun apple tree for a living espalier fence. Happy with the tree. Would recommend for a small backyard orchard.
