China grows more apples than any other country in the world. WOW! The original apple trees started in Central Asia and were brought to North America by European colonists. The pilgrims planted the first US apple trees.
After when the apple seed is planted it can take up to 8 years to start producing apples. Did you know that the apple tree can live up to 100 years old? WOW! National apple moth is actually 3 months-September, October, and November.
Did you know that apple trees are part of the rose family? Apples along with pears, plums, peaches, and cherries are members of the rose family plants. They are kind of distance cousins?.
The apples can flow because they consist of about 21% of air. COOL. That’s why they are used for watery games, like bobbing.
Good Tip: the apples ripen up to 10x faster if you leave them on the counter in the kitchen like when you store them in the refrigerator.
