It’s Honeycrisp, but redder! This apple has everything you love about Honeycrisp, with the added attraction of all-over ruby coloring. Trees have been selected for color over repeated generations, and bear attractive, bright red fruit with non-browning white flesh. Exceptionally crisp and juicy with a mild, sweet flavor, just like you’ve come to expect from the original. Don’t pick too early or you’ll miss the great color. Use as an all-purpose apple, just as you would use Honeycrisp: fresh eating, baking and preserving. Best pollinators: Cortland, Liberty or Starkspur® UltraMac™.
