Owner's comments

The Chehalis is one of the varieties on my 4-in-1 tree. The other varieties including RED Gravenstien, Liberty, and Honeycrisp. We have 5 apple trees in our home orchard - the other four are Braeburn, Honeycrisp, Gravenstein, and Akane. So this 4-in-1 gives us duplicate Honeycrisp and Gravenstien. The Chehalis produced an abundance of Apple's last fall and are wonderful in pies, applesauce, cider, and even eating off the tree. Hard to know when it's ripe, though, since it stays green all year long!
