I spent some time researching about apple trees this morning. As we are wanting to plant a couple dwarf or one standard size.
I thought I'd share the links/info I found helpful:
Growing Apple Trees in Indiana (zone 5) (http://indianagardening.blogspot.com/2008/10/growing-apple-trees-in-indiana.html)

If anyone else has additional tips/recommendations on apple tree varieties to plant in zone 5 please pass them on! :) Thanks much!

GGJo,

Here is Stark Brothers' apple page:

I am very interested in the StarkSpur varieties they carry, as they are very small trees with lots of fruit (I have a tiny yard). You may want to go the multiple small tree route, since you need at least 2 different apple trees for pollination.
