I got my first fruit from 2 of my 4 39th Parallel trees this year. I shined up the front one, the back two have a bit of bloom:

@AndySmith they look like a red delicious seedling perhaps. Would love to hear your tasting opinion when you give them a try.

Beautiful apples and I like how they taste also. I would call them balanced and delicious!

I finally settled on Delcon for my sole Red Delicious family member. If I do not like it I will likely try 39th Parallel. It certainly looks good in all of the photos we see.

Delcon fruited for the first time for me this year and I really enjoyed it. Here it is before it was ripe:

Nice. I have read it is a nice annual producer. With decent resistance to blight and scab.
