Hokuto Apple

[buckvelvet]

Does anyone have 1 of these? Its a cross between a Fuji and a Mutsu, in 2005 it broke records for being over 4 lbs and is in the guiness book of records. I thought it'd be fun for someone in this group that has room to grow 1 for he heck of it. I'd love to see a deer try to nibble on a 4lb apple!

I'd buy one for me, plant it out near the deer, I still gotta see if I can get ahold of some scions from the tree that I think is a wolf river, biggest dang apple I ever saw, with an awesome tart taste.

You just put a stake under each apple.
