Kerr Apple Crab
Fall Red Apple

Kerr Apple Crab is a cross between Dolgo and Haralson that originated in Manitoba. This hardy variety is so tasty that it is often compared to Golden Delicious. Kerr Apples keep well and are good for fresh eating, cooking, and juicing. As an ornamental, this tree blooms in mid-May with clusters of white flowers born from pink buds.

Note: We do not ship grafted apples to BC due to regulatory restrictions from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.

The Fall Red Apple produces large ruby red apples with white flesh that are crisp and sweet. This delicious fruit is great for fresh eating or baking, with a good storage life. Its showy clusters of white flowers in spring add fragrance and beauty to your garden or yard.

Like most apples, the Fall Red apple will produce fruit on its own, but can benefit from another variety of apple (such as Prairie Sensation Apple) for cross pollination. It is a disease resistant alternative to the McIntosh Apple.
