Re: [nafex] Stayman apple + sources Re: Scott Weber and Muffy Barrett

Years ago I lived in Princeton, NJ, and bought apples from Terhune Orchard every fall. Their Stayman Winesaps were excellent, perhaps their best apple.

But apples grow differently in different places. They had some apples that I really enjoy in New England that just never reached their potential in too-warm-for-them Princeton. So, depending on where you live, it might or might not be the exact apple you want. ;)
