🛡️ A Reliable, Disease-Resistant Apple with Extended Drop Time
The Liberty Apple Tree is a hardy, disease-resistant favorite among land managers and orchard growers alike. This productive red apple ripens in late September, but what makes Liberty truly special is its extended drop window—often stretching into late October, and occasionally even holding apples into early snowfalls!

With crisp, sweet-tart flavor and high natural resistance to scab, cedar apple rust, and fire blight, Liberty is an easy-care variety for food plots, backyard orchards, or wildlife applications.

🍏 Why Grow Liberty Apple:

• Excellent disease resistance—great for low-spray or no-spray growers

• Extended drop duration creates a consistent fall food source

• Perfect for mid to late-season attraction

• Cold hardy and dependable producer

• Great for fresh eating, wildlife, or cider making

🦌 Wildlife & Habitat Bonus:
The staggered fruit drop keeps deer, turkey, and other game checking your orchard or plot daily throughout the fall archery season.

🌳 Summary:
Whether you’re after low-maintenance fruit production or looking to keep deer around with a steady supply of fall apples, the Liberty Apple Tree delivers. Its durability, flavor, and prolonged drop make it a smart addition to any orchard, hunting property, or habitat plan.
