Wouldn’t a city of only green apples, even Newtown Pippins, get boring?
Yes! How could one love NYC and not love diversity? Each Newtown Pippin must be matched to a nearby apple tree of another variety to be fertile. We’ve worked to ensure that these pollinating partners are a fun mix of delicious apples, both heritage and new. While we can’t accommodate site requests for a specific pollinator, some of those we use include Honey Crisp, Elstar, Pomme d’Api, Winter Banana, and St. Edmunds Russet. Also, the NYC Department of Parks and Recreation’s habitat restoring Natural Resources Group plants indigenous crab apples.
