Apple Liberty is thought to be one of the top early apples bred for disease resistance, combining exceptional flavour and robust health qualities. These apples are characterised by their attractive red-blushed skin, crisp and juicy flesh, and a well-balanced sweet-tart flavour that further develops during storage. A Braeburn type apple, Liberty is a heavy and abundant bearer, featuring spur-bearing branches. The tree’s disease resistance and self-fertility make it a standout choice, particularly for organic growers, as it is highly resistant to black spot disease and generally requires little to no spraying.
Apple Liberty ripens around March, transitioning from pink buds in spring to beautiful white flowers, making it not only a practical but also an ornamental addition to the garden. Although it is self-fertile, for optimal fruit production, it is advisable to plant it alongside early-flowering cultivars such as Apple Braeburn. This arrangement enhances cross-pollination, resulting in a better crop. The fruits are excellent keepers, ensuring they can be enjoyed well beyond their harvest time.
