Oh man, I liked a Cameo apple so much the other year that I kept the seeds to grow something at least remotely similar. Right now the tree is standing a good 8ft tall, and I expect it to yield some fruit next fall. Only time will tell if it's only a 50/100 apple, or a great one like I remember.

Actually, looking at the comments (https://applerankings.com/cameo-apple-review/), I'm not the only one who thinks they're a great pick.



FYI, apples don't grow true from seed. The apples you get (if any) from your tree will likely be nothing at all like the apple they came from.


All is not lost, however!

The apple tree in question can be grafted with a branch of Cameo, or several.


Yes, I'm aware, and I'm not expecting much, but I'm really curious. I'll probably graft a couple varieties this coming spring, just to be sure I get something viable, plus it's fun to have a salad tree.
