The problem with apples is kinda the opposite the Yankee's have with citrus. Kinda fair in a way they cant grow one but we can. Apples need a long winter. LSU Ag has a few varieties that can grow down here but they are small and ya just aint gonna get a big juicy apple. When I was a kid growing up in Port Barre there was a variety of crab apple that grew around town. My PaPaw had one and there were several others around. He called them zee zees they were wonderful lil apples bout the size and shape of a paper shell pecan. Our area has wonderful wide variety of stuff we can grow. I aint good enough to plant stuff that don't do well here. So I stick with the huge variety that we can grow and leave apples to the yankees.
