Going to do a twist on the favorite 3. Since many of us have more than a handful of trees around.
My home in zone 5, all trees are young but went with good tasting multi-purpose disease free trees
August- Redfree and Pristine.
September- Chestnut and Trailman.
October- Liberty and Empire. Wife loves empire apples, is somewhat disease free though.
November- Enterprise and Frankling Cider
December- Galarina and AWHO. AWHO is planted close to my in-laws house, so they can see more birds.
At Zone 3b, maybe 4a now in sady soil at camp.
September- Trailman and Dolgo. Trailman is mostly for a colorful apple folks can see in the parking lot. Dolgo is low commitment seedling. I have the risk of trees being cut by loggers.
October- Kerr and Crossbow. Crossbow is very disease free. Some reason ants and japanese beetles leave my tree at home alone.
November- Droptine. Seems to grow a bit faster than 30-06.
December- Usually the deer have left camp for less snow by the lake. Got a good snowshe hare and grouse population. going with AWHO and Signal fire. Should keep them fed and might help a club mmber without a dog score some small game. Signal fire, I'm hoping to see grey squirrels at camp, only reds. Got those mean ermine snow weasels, might be the lack of grey squirrels. The tree is a favorite of squirrels in the winter I am told.
