Sweet Sixteen Heritage Apple Tree 2-3ft
CA$60.00
Only a few left!
2-3ft. Sweet Sixteen - Zone 3b - The most unique apple you will ever taste! The Sweet Sixteen apple tree offers a truly unique taste, with a blend of spice, sweet, vanilla and cherry flavours. It is a must taste!
The Sweet Sixteen is an attractive apple; medium sized and yellow in colour with red stripes. This apple is known in particular for its unique taste: sweet with an acidic hint, and incredibly full-flavoured. It is also crisp and very juicy. The taste of this apple ranges from hints of cider, spices, anise, cherry, vanilla bourbon and nuttiness, to name just a few! The flavour is already good before the apple is completely ripe; at this point it has more tartness and the cherry flavour is more pronounced; but at full ripeness its taste is really amazing.
It's a wonderful apple to eat fresh but also gives excellent results when cooked. The taste is even more refined when the summer is not too hot. The fruit matures on a three week period and will keep for about 4 months in a cool room.
The Sweet Sixteen apple tree has resistance to most diseases. Hardy to zone 3b, it's quite vigorous and easy to grow.
Apple Trees should have another apple tree to pollinate with.

1-2 ft. Collet Heritage apple tree - Zone 3b - A disease resistant apple from Manitoba
The Collet apple tree (Malus Collet) is a favourite amongst apple growers because of its disease resistance and quality taste.
The Collet apple (Malus Collet) is light green in colour covered with red stripes, with a diameter of 6-8cm. Its taste is always well-balanced and delicious, ranging from more tart to more sweet depending on harvest time. It shares some similarities with the popular McIntosh apple. The Collet apple is firm and juicy, equally good eaten raw or cooked. It can keep up to 10 weeks. To get the best result from this apple, avoid harvesting it too early as the cold will increase its sugar content.
There is a general consensus about its resistance to scab, but some people have noticed a light sensitivity to fireblight. In optimal conditions, it produces fruit as early as 3 years old.
