Swiss Limbertwig Fruit that was for Sale

Here’s a sight you will rarely see. Facebook photo from North Star Orchard in Pennsylvania in early November. Must not be that unusual up there as I had to hunt to find any mention or pics of it for sale.

I have read Swiss Limbertwig was a commercially grown apple back in the day. Pretty enough. I just do not think it will fruit here.

So far Old Fashioned, Brushy Mountain, Victoria and Summer are the only ones I have read or seen growing and fruiting in warmer climates.

I may have to plan a tasting trip to North Star this year.

Definitely so if you look at the full list of what they grow.
