My red fleshed apple seedling on its second spring is acting weird. It’s the same one potted on my deck previously shown. This past week the new leaves have taken on the look of a red maple. Totally bizarre look to them. If I hadn’t sprouted those seeds carefully myself from the core of a Lucy glow apple, I would not go apple tree. This is the new growth.

Side branch tip:
All the rest of the leaves look normal oval shape for apples. It’s only the new growth in the last week. These leaves are larger sized too than the previous oval ones. Almost twice as big in comparason.
