Not so hopeful...

I purchased two of these a few years back. Neither really did anything. One died, and tge other died down to approx 4 inches. I just dug it up and replaced with new. Prior to that I purchased one and it has done great. I guess it is hit and Miss.

I was a produce person for over 25 years. This apple tree arrived in great shape. I have never tried this apple but it looks to be a great one for my orchard.

Shipped too late

I thought I was ordering a potted plant, but it was bare root and shipped too late. The plant, not surprisingly, died.

Doing well! No fruit yet but looking forward to this one

Planted it with my other purchases of trees. This one leafed out quickly and seems to be doing great!

Huge but tasteless.

I purchased this variety several years ago but removed it after 4 years. The dwarf tree produced several 5” apples years 2-4. However, they weren’t tart or sweet and had no ‘crunch’.

wolf river apple tree

received wolf river bareroot recently. In excellent condition and very well shaped tree. Very good start to its life.
Would certainly buy another from raintree when it is time.

Wolf River apple

The Wolf arrived in good shape and the roots were healthy. It was going to be the pollinator for my Cosmic Crisp but that snapped off in the heavy snow this winter. Guess I should have had a support stake on it. So now the Wolf is in the ground and waiting for a new buddy.

Wow!

I planted my Wolf River tree two years ago. This tree just exploded in growth; what a big, beautiful apple tree for a semi-dwarf! No fruit yet but if the apples are anything like tree they should be spectacular!
