Wagener Apple Scionwood
History:Ā Wagener apples come from a seed that was planted by George Wheeler in the Finger Lakes area of New York in 1791. In 1796, Abraham Wagener purchased Wheeler's property and planted the seedling on his own property in Penn Yan village where the tree was known for producing attractive, tasty fruit in abundance every year. The variety was named after Wagener and became popular for its excellent storage qualities.Ā Ā
Why We Grow It:Ā Wagener isĀ ideal for the self-sufficient homesteader who values a late keeper, lasting until April in an ordinary cold cellar. When first picked they have a sharp, acidic taste and are great for cooking.Ā In storage, they mellow to an excellent sweet, crisp apple that is perfect for fresh eating.
