More about this plant
Red all the way through
The flesh is as red as the skin, which is what colours the cider. The leaves are dark with a silvery cast, so the tree stands out even when it is not in fruit. Red Wonder is a prairie apple introduced by Prairie Hardy Nursery.

Apples need pollen from a different apple or crabapple to set fruit. A second variety in your yard will do it, and so will a neighbour's apple or fruiting crabapple. Double flowered ornamental crabapples make no pollen and do not count.
