Hi Richard,
 
I have one Enterprise planted but it hasn't fruited yet (it's possible it will next year).  It doesn't get scab or rust here, so it is disease resistant.  One thing you might want to consider, you live in Maine as I recall.  Enterprise ripens about the same time as Fuji, so it might be a little long for your growing season.  Plus it probably ripens after the farmers market season.  Another thing is no one raves about it's taste.  Quite frankly, if I had to do it over, I would have planted a Fuji (I know they taste good).

Hi Gang;
 
Anybody growing Enterprise (disease resis) apples?
What is your experience? Good cropper / slow / precocity ?? / taste / size ??
 
Curious to see if it lives up to it's claims.
 
PS    The Caroline raspberry (5 plants) set an impressive crop in zone 4 Maine. A lot of big, good-tasting berries.
        The Polanas (5) did OK; ripened 2 weeks before Caroline, still picking, almost done.

PPS    Another plug for Miller's Big Blue plum. 120 plums off one small tree. Loaded. Good fruit.
          Festooning it for one year really seemed to help.
