*This is not a wildlife variety. I am a fan of citizen plant breeder Steven Edholm's (@Skillcult) apple breeding efforts and have grafted a limited number of his varieties. $5 from each tree sold will go to @Skillcult as a "royalty" to further his work.
-Cherub is a cross between Wickson (seed parent) and the red fleshed Rubaiyat (pollen parent). A fruit of ridiculous Sweetness, chubby, pink fleshed and deliciously different.
-It has some mixed fruit and berry flavors from Rubaiyat. It also has a small, but significant, measure of the rich, deep, malty goodness of Wickson. Wickson lends richness and depth and rubaiyat lends higher fruit notes. The two together make a slightly odd, but compelling and interesting palette of flavors. Sugar is through the roof.
