description for "Apples: Malus pumila 'Westfield Seek-no-Further'"
Seek-no-further you've found 'Westfield'. Originating in Westfield, Massachusetts before 1750, this sweet tasting apple is best eaten fresh rather than cooked. Usually creamy yellow in color, the skin is sometimes streaked with red. The fruit ripens in October and stores well. Ripening dates may vary depending on growing area. These semi-dwarfed hybrids will reach a mature height of 10-12 feet. Plant 15-20 feet apart. At least two other varieties are needed for proper pollination. Zones 5-9. Edited by M.Tate.
