Discovered in 1790 and so loved that there is a monument to the first Golden Grimes tree at its home in West Virginia. A delicious apple that also was a favorite among cider makers and moonshiners. Still fairly common in the south. Green apples that a turn a lovely yellow. They are a mixed bag in terms of disease resistance.
