Hailing from Minnesota and with its roots tracing back to the 1940s, the Fireside apple tree has garnered a loyal following. Its name, inspired by President Roosevelt's "Fireside Chats," speaks to its hardiness and popularity. The large, crisp, juicy and sweet fruits boast a greenish-white flesh that is never flat or mealy. With a striking flame orange striped skin over a rich yellow undercover, this apple is not only visually appealing but also long-lasting and full of flavor. Its aroma fills the room and it demonstrates resistance to cedar-apple rust, making it an excellent cold-hardy option. Discover more about our organically grown Fireside apple trees for sale below.
