Interesting point on Honeycrisp..............I have eaten honeycrisp 
purchased at major supermarket outlets, from several sources in eastern 
Canada/USA and in all cases the taste is horrible..........I will not try 
this apple again. Not really crisp, and honey - forget it!!

This is disappointing, because it's one of the varieties I planted, just
for that reason (and because I like the taste, at least in grocery store
apples). I've since discovered that it supposedly tastes best when there
are cool nights when it ripens, so maybe this was a bad pick for two
reasons.


Thanks,
