Nope, that wasn't it. It is a real apple tree and I should have mentioned
that I'm in the south, zone 7, N.E. AL.


Here in GatThe trees are available from farmers in north Ga.
http://www.agr.state.ga.us/html/farm...ket_bulle.html is the site
for the Georgia market bulletin in which you can usually find several ads for
"Horse" apples doing the late fall and winter, It is an older variety which as
some folks would say only fit fro feeding to horses. Of course many of the
older trees are probably seedlings.
