    Very cool. I wonder what the apples would be like if you propagated new trees from the seeds of your Liberty/Ashmead/Cox Orange Pippen grafted tree. Will this tree be used for cider apples?

      Unfortunately, from what I understand, getting a decent apple hybrid from two varieties of apple is extremely rare. Things seem to have to align just right. I think it’s like 1 in 5k or something like that.
