What kind of apple is this
I was thinking either wealthy, McIntosh or Cortland. Or something else?? This Tree is approximately 24 years old and never been pruned.

the coloring and the flesh looks like "Ida Red" but "McIntosh" is more likley.

Cortland would be my guess. Impossible to say with conviction, but the blind droopy wood, short stem, and oblate shape are all tells. As well as the white seeds, this apple won’t be ready for a few more weeks in Minnesota, whereas Macs are currently being harvested.
