The cheery tree is a large sweet cheery that produces very little fruit. The Apple is a honey crisp that produces quite a few wormy apples but I have no idea how to care for them

First, figure out what zone you are in here.

Next, have you consulted your local nurseries? How about your local Agricultural Extension? Both excellent sources for local advice.

Here are some links for general care! Hope they help.

Honey Crisps are the best apples in the world -- well . . . the ones I've tried anyway. I would LOVE to have that tree.

  They are good! I would love to have a tree. One of my favorite apples - varieties in my area are pretty slim, love visit the east coast and south, so many options!

My honey crisp tree died. I may have cut it back too much.
