So how does triumph stack up against supersnap? Think you probably have some fruit off triumph by now for a bit of an opinion. One I planted for a friend is a number of yrs from fruit production. He or really his wife are always asking about growing the latest hot topic apples from the supermarket but don't think about the zero care for apples that happens at their hunting property. So "honeycrisp like" with zero spraying program is the elusive goal for any new plantings I help them with

honeycrisp x enterprise will be off patent soon too.

One that caght my eye was big deer from SLN. Good crabapple found from planting 100 sweetango seeds.

Do I need to be a commercial grower to get access to the trees? (Assuming I'm willing to pay the costs)
