Apple Trees for Sale
Malus domestica, commonly known as apple, are grown all over the world and come in 7500 varieties with 2500 of those varieties being grown in the US. However, only 100 varieties are commercially cultivated in the United States. Apples come in all shades of red, green, and yellow and are a member of the Rose family. The fruits are fat free, sodium free, and cholesterol free, making them an excellent and healthy snack choice. One medium sized apple contains around 5 grams of fiber with only 80 calories. They also contain a fair amount of malic acid, which is used in teeth whitening products to remove stains. When left at room temperature, apples can ripen up to 10 times faster than if they were refrigerated. Be sure that you do not peel your apple as two thirds of the fiber and most of the antioxidants are found in the skin. Over half of the apples produced in the United States, from green apples to red, are found in the state of Washington. The average person consumes around 65 apples a year. Apples are the United States' second most valuable fruit crop grown in the United States. The first apple nursery was opened in Flushing, New York in 1730.
