very flavorful late apple
BRIAN B on Mar 7, 2017
First tried the SunCrisp apple this year at a local farmers market in Alabama. After the first bite my wife and I knew that this was going to be our apple of choice. Unfortunately he had a limited supply this year and I tried three weeks to get more and he sold out most times before the market even opened up and I was showing up an hour and half before the market opened. My wife and I like sweet with tart and crunchy apples, this fits the bill. so now I have my own.

It is a beautiful apple and people are drawn to sunny apples. It will be a good addition to my orchard and I believe people will buy the fruit.

This is by far the best apple I have ever eaten. The fruit stays really well in the fridge and it has a sweet/tart flavor. I have not found it for sale anywhere around Traverse City so I have decided to grow my own.

Sun Crisp Apple
Maybe my favorite of all the newer apples.
Late season, very crisp and flavorful, easy to grow.

Heavy bearing
I purchased this and another tree as a gift for my grandchildren. They had a few apples last fall and visiting there today I noticed we will need to restack the tree as a heavy crop is pulling it to one side. Has a high percentage of clean fruit with minimal spraying.

No crop as of yet but growing well and looking good. My personal orchard has several Stark Bros. varieties, some that I've grown in past years and love the crisp sweet taste each affords. This is the 2nd year for the suncrisp so no apples yet. My family has used Stark Bros. trees since I was a toddler who is now an old goat.
