    One of the disease resistant apples I like is William's Pride.  Mine
is 17 years old
    on Mark rootstock and is a consistent producer.  I have reduced my

Sherwin, I too had a Williams pride  on mark, but after about 7-8 years it
broke  clean at the union graft during a wind storm . The tree was not staked
but clearly  the grafting never really took. The apple is excellent
especially storing for a few weeks, never sprayed it for any thing and Early.
