Eating

Sweet, Med-Acidity, Refreshingly Crisp.

Description:

            Since it’s release in the 1990s from the University of Minnesota, the Honeycrisp apple has become a mainstay, and one of the most popular apples on the market. Each year in the past decade demand for this apple has consistently outdone its supply.  The Honeycrisp is a medium to large, pink hued red/orange apple over a green/yellow background, with speckle-spotted skin.  This apple has a thirst-quenchingly light and crisp/crunch texture.  Its flavour is sweet, with a hint of complexity, and some balancing acidity.  Mid-harvest, early-September.  Low vigour.  Prone to bitterpit.  Good disease resistance.  Zone hardiness 3.  Stores well (until April).  Bruises easily.  Retains crispness when stored. 

Not self-pollinating.
