Testimonial
I have worked with Haskap Central, Curtis and Leslie for 7 years. They have been nothing but informative, kind, and patient with me. Having one of the largest orchards in Montana, I have had to lean on Curtis' vast understanding of the cultivar. I have never failed to be impressed with packaging & the quality of the starts I have purchased & received from Haskap Central. My farm, @bigskyhoneyberries is now thriving due to the consistent advice & help from Curtis & Leslie over the years. I couldn't suggest a better provider of high quality healthy haskap starts, who believe in their product & have intimate knowledge of growing. Haskap Central is the premier provider of quality haskap plants & I find their small business to be run by two of the kindest & most genuine people I've worked with. I always direct people in my orbit to Haskap Central.

Apples, believed to be the world’s oldest cultivated tree, originated in Kazakhstan and Central Asia. The University of Saskatchewan has been breeding apples since the 1920s, focusing on cold hardiness, fruit quality, and storage life.
Since apples are self-incompatible, they require a different variety for pollination. In urban areas, nearby apple or crabapple trees often suffice, while rural growers may need a second tree or a multi-grafted tree that can self-pollinate.
Apple trees typically bloom with white or pink flowers in mid to late May. Their fruit varies in size and color, ripening from late August to early October, depending on the cultivar. Prairie and northern gardeners should choose early-ripening varieties due to shorter fall seasons.
Apples generally take 4 to 5 years to begin producing fruit.
