Owner's comments
Reinette grise du Canada is one of those apples I'm so curious about. It's height is about 1 metre or maybe 1,50. This year (2020) it is bearing fruit beginnings and my family and I might have a taste of these apples. Supp. The apples have no taste, due to the cold and rainy weather in 2021.Season records for this tree
