This incredible old homestead apple has stood the test of time, originating in Minnesota in the 1860's. An early apple, Wealthy makes splendid applesauce, but is also good for fresh eating. Wealthy bears early, is scab resistant and cold hardy, makes an excellent pollinator for other apples, and is well-suited for organic orchards.
