Does anybody have apples with "sweet" in the name? e.g. Tolman Sweet, Fletcher Sweet, Munson Sweet, Eastman Sweet, etc. etc. etc.

I kinda figured there wouldn't be any oddball varieties in this group but figured it was worth asking. I'm always interested in the sweet apples. Many of them are considered pretty worthless for fresh eating, but they are oftentimes used in cider (sweet and hard). I added a few sweet varieties this year. Time will tell if they survive winters here.

I don't think I have any varieties other than ones that have been mentioned above. I need to do a better job of documenting what I have on my WI place though since I planted some of those 12+ years ago and don't have a list of the varieties anywhere. I labeled all the trees though, but that doesn't do me any good when I'm 3 hours away.

My list of "sweet" apples
Dunkerton Late Sweet Eastman Sweet Fletcher Sweet Gideon Sweet Linda Sweet Munson Sweet Spice Sweet Sweet Sixteen Tolman Sweet Washington Sweet (which has now been identified via DNA to be the same as Pumpkin Sweet of Mt. Vernon)
I lost Hendrick Sweet this year, I think due to graft incompatibility.
Adding Sweet Sal next year
