The large number of Franklin Cider is just one of an assortment of varieties offered. Honeycrisp, liberty, enterprise. Snowsweet, royal empire, fortune, are some of the others to name a few.

My 5 franklins on b118s arrived today from Cummins and they are now in the ground. They looked good and I was really impressed with the root mass on those trees. the forecast is wet and cool here, which is great.

We had 800 Franklin Ciders go out this week to commercial cider makers, backyard growers, and habitat managers. It's time for me to get some more in the ground in my tree plots. I too was very impressed with the root mass on the trees I received. What amazed me the most of the 10 or so varieties that came in the Franklin trees where the tallest I have ever seen packed in the boxes with a grade of 3/4 inch to 7/8 inch.

Doin ok Bill, thanks. Ya, that was tongue in cheek. I could probably do it, but I'd be regretting it. I would get some if I was feeling better. I do want to put in a few for hard cider.

Hope you had good luck this mornin w/ the thunder chickens!

I was sold out of the Franklin over the weekend after several calls from cidermakers who learned I was awarded a bronze at the International Cider and Perry competition (Glintcap) in the non-commercial division. The wildlife Group in Georgia has secured 2000 Franklins for spring planting 2018for those looking to purchase less then the minimum set by Starks. A good contact to speak to is Allen Deese . I'm up at this time to go turkey hunting with a friend. I've been roosting all night and it's time to go...,,gobble gobble.

 

[aerospacefarmer]

Thanks Appleman good luck hunting
