The 'Turkey' apple is thought to be a seedling of 'Winesap', selected by Joe A. Burton, a fruit grower located between Mitchell and Orleans, Indiana. The fruit of 'Turley' more nearly resembles 'Stayman Winesap' than any other variety, although it is similar to 'Winesap' in skin and flesh color. The tree is more vigorous and spreading than 'Stayman', and more susceptible to winter injury. Trees bear as early, or earlier than 'Stayman'. Fruit yield is about the same. However, there is a greater tendency for the fruit to be borne on short spurs; and weak trees tend to become almost exclusively spur-bearing.
