Fruition’s current online tree growing resources are focused on Apple Trees (and it is also true that Pears, Plums, Peaches, Apricots and Cherries require much the same site choice, planting, and basic care considerations!) On that note, we hope you'll enjoy Fruition's free full library of Growing Trees Resources. Also recommended are all books by the late Michael Phillips and the online resources at the New England Tree Fruit Management Guide. In the meantime, enjoy more Fruition tree growing resources:

Goldrush Apple
semi-dwarf rootstock = mature height 10-12ft | late-season | fresh eating & storage | hardy to zone 4
The most luscious winter apple we’ve ever tasted, bursting with deep, nuanced sweetness and such a satisfying crunch! The final apple we harvest in late November, Goldrush gets sweeter as they blush in the cold, undaunted all the way down to 22 F, -6 C. Lasting through May in the cellar, Goldrush is prime December through April.
We are sharing Goldrush on Geneva 202 dwarfing rootstock, making it easier to pick, prune, and maintain than standard sized trees. Dwarfing trees are more precocious than standards, bearing fruit earlier in age.
Exceptional in flavor and storage, Goldrush is also highly resistant to scab and powdery mildew with moderate resistance to fire blight. Hardy to zone 4.
