RE: [nafex] liberty apple

[Phil Norris <COUSINPHIL@ACADIA.NET>]

The Fedco catalog describes Liberty as   "....of very good dessert 
quality when dead ripe."

And that seems to be key.  The fruit really is quite tart until dead 
ripe.  I am a big fan of Liberty.  They are the most vigorous trees 
in my orchard and begin fruit production at an early age.  I just had 
a guest here from NYC this morning who raved about the Liberties I 
gave her right off the tree but turned her nose up at the 
Honeycrisps.  "Too sweet," she said.
