  (2 customer reviews)

One of the first to ripen! Clear-skinned yellow fruit is ready by late August. Is it famous for its large fruit size, good looks and fabulous flavor? Or its adaptability, hardiness and vigor? You be the judge!

Now you can grow delicious, full-size apples no matter how small your garden! Imagine picking 1/2 bushel or more apples from each of your Li’l-BIG trees just a few years after planting them in the ground! If you have limited space or simply want a little tree with big benefits,
Li'l-BIG is for you. Reaching 6 ft. tall at the most and producing half a bushel of fruit, Li'l-BIG are a snap to spray, prune and harvest compared to standard size trees.

Zones: 4-8.

Nice antique apple tree
Reviewed By: Angela Bonner (Orofino, Idaho)
Nice antique apple. Ripens early. The best for pies and applesauce!! Does not store very well, but it has a great flavor for snacking when ripe. Pick while green for more 'tang'. I'm delighted to see this old apple available from Gurney's it's always been one of my favorites!

Old apple
Reviewed By: Gonzo (Coeur D Alene, ID)
very early summer (June to early July in most climates). its only good fresh off the tree does not store well,However when fresh it is juicy and flavorful: excellent for sauce and pies, also used fresh and for drying. Skin of fully ripe fruit is pale yellow, waxy, thin, transparent. In hot summer climates especially, begin picking while fruit is still green and tart. Season lasts 3-4 weeks. Very winter hardy, vigorous, dependable tree begins bearing very young. fast growing heavily-spurred branches. Originated in Russia, introduced to the U.S. in 1870. Estimated chilling requirement 800-1000 hours. I can only give it two stars because its time has past 15 years ago it would have been rated higher. however with the new apple lines this is no longer a winner in my book.
