To keep up with ever-changing consumer tastes, growers must routinely convert orchard blocks to new cultivars to remain competitive in the retail market. In this video, we'll discuss apple varieties with characteristics well-suited for direct retail operations. These include familiar favorites and some lesser- known varieties with flavors and appearances that will help you stand out. This list features apples that ripen during the harvest season, and while they may not be the easiest to store, their flavor makes them ideal for The Johnny Christ variety was developed at the University of Minnesota. The tree is not very vigorous and should not be planted in M-99 unless they are close together. It's common to see green mottling on Hong and Kris leaves during the summer. The fruit ripens from early to mid- September and is recognized for its crisp texture. Storage life in a common, regular atmosphere has been up to six to seven months. For more information on Johnny Christ and other varieties published by the University, see [link to relevant information]. From Minnesota, visit their Gala is another very popular variety. It is crisp and juicy with excellent flavor. The fruit ripens in late August in southern Pennsylvania and requires multiple pickings for best quality. Storage life is between 3 and 6 months. The original was yellow with orange-red stripes, but now there are many deep-colored varieties available. Fuji is firm and crisp with a sweet, semi-tart flavor. It has a strong biennial bearing period, so the trees need to be pruned properly. Trees with a moderate crop load respond very well to recurring multiple bloom treatments. The fruit is medium-sized and has a round to conical shape. The flesh is firm and crisp and has a sweet, semi-tart flavor. The Fuji variety normally ripens in late October and may not ripen in central and northern Pennsylvania. However, there are now many early-ripening varieties that allow Fuji to be grown in almost all regions of the state. Ripstein is the correct name for the apple variety that has been marketed as Pink Lady when the trees are purchased. The grower receives a royalty-free license from Ping Lady America, allowing them to use the name Ping Lady. The trees will grow vigorous and straight but are susceptible to fire blight. The fruit ripens in mid-November, is medium-sized and elongated, and has very firm flesh that can be stored for a long time. Many places in Pennsylvania do not have a long enough planting season for the fruit to ripen properly. In central Pennsylvania, the fruit is harvested while still green around November 5th. The Vera Christ was developed by the Midwest Improvement Association, a private organization supported by growers. It is a cross between Fuji and Johnny Christ. To purchase trees, individuals must be members of the association and agree to pay a royalty per tree once it begins producing. The Vera matures from mid- to late October and resembles its maternal counterpart, Fuji, in shape and appearance, with a texture similar to Johnny Christ. It is sweet and has a wide harvest and storage window. Jone Gold was developed in New York and is a cross between Golden Delicious and Jonathan John & Gold. It is a triple cross. Although it is a vigorous tree that produces large fruit annually, it cannot be used as a pollen source. The fruit ripens from early to mid-October; they are large and conical. Jonah Gold has received high ratings in apple flavor tests, but its is another release from the Minnesota Crops Program. It is a cold-hardy, early-season apple that ripens in late August. As a young tree, the growth habit is upright and vigorous, but it has more moderate vigor once it matures. It is susceptible to apple scab and fire blight. The apples have an average diameter of 3 inches and are typified by a red stripe. The fruit has an excellent sweet flavor and can be stored for approximately Ginger Gold is the early-ripening Golden type, harvested from early to mid-August. The trees are very precocious but susceptible to [unclear - possibly "unclear" or "unclear"]. The fruit finish is very smooth with a bit of reddish tinge, and the storage potential is very good. It is an early apple that ripens in August. The trees are precocious but grow slowly. It has a smooth, yellow, almost translucent skin. The fruit is crisp and juicy. This apple may be harder to find since there is currently little The Sunrise apple ripens just before the Gala, and the fruit seems to have a natural resistance to codling moth. The color is an attractive pinkish-red on a yellow background, and it is medium-sized. The flavor of the fruit is mild and slightly sweet. We only recommend the Song Rice for central and northern Pennsylvania since the fruit spoils too quickly in The Blonde apple ripens a week before the Gala. It is a completely yellow apple with the texture and flavor of a Gala. It has cream-colored flesh that is resistant to browning and can be stored for approximately two months in a The St. Crist tree is an early-maturing tree that produces large, late-season yellow apples and is harvested about a week after the Delicious apple. The fruits are conical, have an orange striped area on a yellow background, and have crisp yellow flesh. The fruit has a unique pear-like tangy flavor. It has good storage potential, and the quality improves after a short time. Jameson Crist was developed by the program The cooperative breeder, The Breakers Illinois, was bred to be resistant to apple scab and is also moderately resistant to brown rot and blight; however, it is susceptible to fire blight. The cultivar ripens from mid to late September and hangs well on the tree so that the fruit can be picked in early October. The fruit is dark to medium red with a thick, creamy skin, slightly acidic, and can be kept for about six months in regular storage. Goldberg was also developed by the Porter Rockers Illinois breeding program and is resistant to apple scab. The tree is moderately vigorous with an upright growth habit. The fruit ripens in early November and may be too late for central and northern Pennsylvania. The fruits are medium to large and have a slightly acidic, tangy flavor at harvest, improving after two months of storage. The fruit quality is excellent and can be kept for about Pixie Crunch is another apple from the Porter Rockers Illinois breeding program and is resistant to scab; however, it is susceptible to blight and fire blight. The fruit is... Dark red to purple in color and ripens in mid-September, it has yellow flesh that is extremely crisp and juicy. The flavor is moderate to slightly acidic. They tend to be small but can be marketed as a snack apple. The storage life is at most two months. Bing was developed in the private sector by Albert Ayer in California and patented by California Nursery Company. This apple ripens in mid-August and is distinguished by its non-oxidizing pink flesh and tart flavor. The skin color is a translucent greenish-white. The trees are susceptible to apple scab and fire blight, and the storage life is approximately Now, it ripens from mid- to late September and was developed at Cornell University. It is a cross between Golden Delicious and Monroe. The bright red fruits have white flesh that is slow to oxidize, although it is not related to Johnny Christ. The texture is similar, and the fruit is very juicy. Orient was developed in the Czech Republic as part of the Song Chang series of apple scab immunity. It is a triple-vegetarian variety. The fruits are large and They can become too large in very fertile soils. In addition to scab resistance, they are tolerant of powdery mildew. The fruit ripens in early October, at the same time as the Golden Delicious. The flesh is firm, crisp, fine-grained, and has a good balance of sweet and tart. The fruit may develop a light reddish color near the stem and can be stored until March. These cultivars have been evaluated in deaths in Central and Adams counties. As mentioned in some descriptions, there are some cultivars that do very well in one region but should be avoided in another. Before establishing large orchards of a new variety, always plant a few trees to test. Also, try to visit or talk to growers who already have fruit of a particular apple variety you would like to grow. For more information on cultivars, rootstocks, and other topics, visit the Penn State Extension Office's fruit production website. Also, consider purchasing the Penn State Fruit Tree Production Guide. Growing fruit trees is a new adventure for you, so gather as much information as possible before planting. Also, consider taking a commercial fruit growing course at
