Famous for its frequently huge size ("one apple makes a pie") Wolf River is firm, has juicy flesh, and is slightly aromatic, with a distinctive, mild, sub-acid flavor. Discovered around 1875 near the Wolf River in Wisconsin, this variety is resistant to scab, mildew, fire blight and cedar apple rust. The Wolf River apple is very winter hardy, and has a long-lived pale-yellow skin that is nearly covered with bright-red flush and red stripes.  This tree bears early and yields enormous fruits, often 1 lb. or more.
