Buy a lemon tree and plum tree and graft a branch of each on there..
Got a couple of tree’s myself and created with canes a simple support wrack to keep the branches up…
For a new tree it’s recommended that you remove all the apples for a few years and let it grow – use supports if necessary. Otherwise you’ll end up with a weirdly shaped tree.
Urgent crumble making needed
That “tree” is clearly an overachiever.
Don’t pick any of them. I’ve seen this before. The second you do, a rope will grab your foot and you’ll be stung up in a tree.
What variety are they?
They look a little too sun kissed for green eaters, if that is what they are.
Wouldn’t worry too much. Looks like first or second year of roots in the ground for her, she obviously wants to pump out fruit, so a little tlc on the the branches, and as peeps have suggested, and looks like you’ll have a good cropper there.
You need to get a wooden brace to hold the branch up. When your done with he crop make sure you prune the tree correctly and you will have more branches but they’ll be shorter and more manageable. You should also have more apples next year.
[Edit] Also apples trees all have unique DNA so unless it’s a clone they will most likely be unique. The great thing about apple trees is you can graft other types of apples on to a given tree and grow many different types on a single tree.

Aye, best prop them up, lest the poor things fling their fruit in protest.
Keep them off the floor reinforce that branch
The word ‘tree’ doing a lot of heavy lifting here, both physically and metaphorically 😂
Roots weak, branches heavy. There’s apples on the floor already…

My plums – your apples: 1572 – 6
Plums win!
