Malus 'Macoun'
Naturehills.com carries thousands of products including the Macoun
from the Fruit Trees family.
The Macoun Apple, Malus 'Macoun', is a dessert-type apple exhibiting similar characteristics to McIntosh. Macoun is recognized in the Northeast for its high quality. Its flesh is white, firm, and juicy. This apple is a high demand item for the roadside market and pick-your-own trade. Its honey sweetness makes up for the mild flavor. Great for eating fresh and for snacks, salads, and fruit cups, and it also makes good applesauce. The tree is upright in habit requiring aggressive thinning to maintain annual cropping. Macoun blooms in mid-season and will pollinate all other early blooming apple varieties, varieties blooming in the middle of the season, and also varieties blooming late in the season. Plant about a month after the first killing frost in the fall or about a month before the last killing frost in the spring. Select a planting site that has good air, drainage, full sunlight and deep, well drained soil.
