Taste & characteristics

Canker

Given in thirds of a month (early / mid / late) for the northern hemisphere in a temperate climate; altitude and season shift them.

Early summer apple, more culinary than dessert (grade 3-), keeps only briefly.

Moderately vigorous, otherwise healthy tree.

Somewhat prone to canker on heavy soils. For standard orchards.

Prevent canker on heavy soils; as a short-keeping early variety, use soon after picking.
