TREE FRUIT VARIETY SHOWCASE
WAFLER
NURSERY
Wafler Nursery is pleased to showcase the following
varieties for your future plantings. We believe that
these varieties show great potential in diversifying
and improving your orchard operations, whether you
are a wholesale or direct-to-market farm. We have a
large selection of apple, pear, cherries and stone fruits
available for this coming spring and the spring of 2025. It
is not too early to custom order for the spring of 2026.
A. Maia Mitchel (Evercrisp)
Maia Mitchel is a new high-color sport off of Maia 1. This
sport was found by Bill Pitts in Wafler Farms Orchards. It
was noticed during summer pruning because its color had
developed sooner than other fruit in the orchard.
This apple has all the great flavor and storability as
Maia 1. Apples will still be marketed as Evercrisp if
A
B
they meet the quality standards. Customers must be a
member of the Midwest Apple Improvement Association
to order.
B. Kudos (MN33)
Kudos is the University of Minnesota's newest apple
release. This apple is a Honeycrisp x Minnewashta
(Zestar!) cross that ripens late September. This apple
colors easily and has a sweet crisp flavor. With medium
vigor, it is annual bearing and hardy to zone 4.
Sweet Maia
Sweet Maia (cv MAIA-SM) is a Honeycrisp/Winecrisp
cross originating in a seedling lot distributed in 2001. The
first fruiting was in 2009. It stands out as an early season
apple with fall apple qualities. Ripening 7-12 days before
Gala and featuring 80%-100% bright, attractive red color,
it has a long harvest window of 14-21 days. It is nondropping,
crispy and sweet. It maintains a good storage
life of 90 days in common refrigerated storage. It can
be managed as a one- or two-pick harvest. Customers
must be a member of the Midwest Apple Improvement
Association to order.
RedRidge Gala
RedRidge Gala (AB 1088 cv PPAF) is an exciting new
introduction from International Plant Management
that is almost 100% red blush. It colors very early and
develops into a deep red blush that can't be beat. It
ripens 4-5 days ahead of its parent, Brookfield Gala,
with the same sweet taste.
Roseland Red Honeycrisp
Roseland Red Honeycrisp (cv RS 1087) is a beautiful
red strain of Honeycrisp that colors exceptionally well
in the heat and really shines in cooler climates. It has
that great Honeycrisp flavor and crunch with a typical
Honeycrisp tree. It will give your packout a real boost,
no matter what your growing conditions are.
