Storage

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

Description

Fruit

Early summer apple (rated 2-3) that makes an outstanding apple sauce like hardly any other variety.

Growth

Moderately vigorous tree.

Notes

Formerly very popular summer apple for garden and meadow orchard, recommended in NRW. Barely susceptible to scab, prone to canker on heavy soils. Frost-hardy, also for higher altitudes; keeps only 1-2 weeks.

Care

Harvest at exactly the right moment, when the green fruit on the tree just begins to lighten towards yellow; then use quickly.
