Default Apple Tree From Seed in Mid-Atlantic

My wife sowed some apple seeds from a grocery store apple, which germinated
just fine. Would these things do ok in the Mid-Atlantic region? This was
more of an experiment for our young kids, but I am wondering if these things
are viable here.

Thanks.


The tree will grow but fruit depends a lot on the site. The mountains
of WV and VA are good apple producing regions. Other areas might not
be so good because of high humidity and lack of air drainage.
