Liberty*
Like many scab-free varieties, Liberty has crab apple in it's parentage. The final cross that produced the Liberty was between a Macoun and an unnamed experimental variety. Crisp, juicy and flavorful. An excellent eating apple that make a colorful, grapefruit colored sauce. Gets extremely sweet in storage. Ripens around the 1th of October.
