The florida apples are the Anna and Dorset goldens. They are different from their Northern cousins and are grown mainly for the homeowners of the farms in Florida. They are hard to grow and susceptible to mildew esp the Annas.

If you are in zone 10 – Sorry, no apples for you.
In a zone 9 you can grow:
Granny Smith: good eating, tart & tangy
Arkansas Black: sweet, good for cooking and baking
Cortland Apple: sweet, juicy and also good for cooking & baking
You’ll need to plant more than one tree / variety because they are not self pollinating… I suggest you purchase tree locally if you can if not I’ve always been happy with the plants I received from nature hills nursery...
Good luck!
