Typically larger fruit doesn't mean better but these were delicious.
Happy growing!

I have a couple Wolf Rivers too. Here’s one of my granddaughters last Fall with one she tackled but for some reason couldn’t finish.
The advertising slogan on the Wolf River (developed in Wisconsin) was “One apple can make a pie”
Rain or watering at critical times, good soil with natural drainage and worm aeration and pollinators at bloom all work together I’ve found.
Those Cortlands knock me out. I really like them
