We have this tree we planted 400 on bud 9 spring 2016 at that time they had a nursery number mn55 , great apple for an early apple but is not a Sweetango and in my opinion wont compare we picked ours aug 20 these are second leaf trees and we harvested about 45 bushel from 400 trees and we thinned hard this spring

Rave is not the official name in Minnesota its marketed as First Kiss ,, this apple is controlled release and carries a substantial contract and yearly royalty fees for 20 years then the patent will run out and they will be available to everyone
