Zabergau is an outstanding old German variety with extra-large, crunchy, russeted fruit ripening in October. Firm and with zingy acidity straight off the tree, the fruit gains sweetness and some tenderness with a month of cold storage. When ripe the skin is yellow and almost completely covered with golden russeting. A new favorite at East Hill. This variety does not produce viable pollen.
B118: B118 or “Bud 118” is considered semidwarf or semistandard, growing to 85% the size of a standard rootstock tree. Similar to a standard, trees on B118 are vigorous, hardy and need no staking. Trees on B118 will begin bearing fruit slightly earlier than standard rootstock trees and are reliably productive trees.
BULK PRICING: Any combination of 10 or more apples (potted and/ or bare-root) will receive 10% off.

Apples thrive in Vermont. You need to have at least two different varieties for pollination; however, apples are common enough in Vermont that you can often get away with planting one if a neighbor has a few trees. Wild trees or crab apples growing nearby can also serve as pollinators. More pollen often means more and larger fruit. Plant in a well-drained spot with good sun. We grow and sell varieties that perform well in our climate and growing conditions. Varieties listed as “heirloom” originated before 1900.
If you are planting a few trees, consider selecting varieties with different uses or ripening times. If you are planning to make hard cider, add a cider variety or two to blend with more typical dessert fruit.
