SNOW SWEET

Rating:

Parentage / Origin : a

Harvest / Season : Late Season

Parentage / Origin : Kansas 1875

Harvest / Season : Late

Description: Tart, rich, wine-like flavor; Excellent firm cooking apple with spicy taste. The fruit is medium to large, soft red bloom over greenish base, striped red in less highly-colored fruit. Flesh yellowish, firm, tender, juicy, pleasantly subacid. Produces well in cool coastal climates. Triploid. Displays resistance to scab, cedar apple rust and fireblight.

This apple is the warmer climate version of a Haralson - the premier late season tart all purpose "winter" storage apple of Minnesota. Makes great pies. (In my unbiased opinion)

Other Characteristics : Needs a pollinator. Hardiness zones 6,7,8,9,10
