Liberty Apple Tree

Liberty Apple Tree

The First True Low-Spray Apple

  (5 customer reviews)



Fabulous for fresh eating, juice and sauce, this crunchy, mildly tart apple is much like an easy-to-grow version of McIntosh. Resists scab, fire blight and cedar apple rust—the name actually refers to the breeder’s quest to free the grower from endless spraying! Ripens early Oct. Zones 5-8.

This item ships only in the spring.
If our spring shipping season is closed, your order will be shipped the following spring.

Not impressed
Reviewed By: SB Collins (Nampa, Idaho)
Got my tree this week. Man this thing is small with no branches. Not impressed with the development of the tree at all. I would think the thing would have a couple branches at least. Save your money and got to a local nursrey and buy somthing that is already established.

Got 2 Liberty trees last spring and they were very robust when I got them and grew very well. Very satisfied !

Excellent disease resistance

Cedar apple rust is a big concern in my area, as there are many cedar trees around here. I have ten different varieties of apple trees and Liberty is one of three that I have that shows excellent resistance to cedar apple rust. The flavor is really good, also.
