Fuji is crisp and juicy, with dull white flesh which snaps cleanly. The flavor is predominantly sweet and very refreshing (especially if chilled).The Fuji apple is a hybrid created in Japan in the 1930's with two American apple varieties, Red Delicious and old Virginia Ralls Genet.
Baldwin is one of the best New England apples, and one of the oldest. It is large and conical, with crimson red over a coppery green skin. Its cream-white flesh is crisp and juicy. It is aromatic with a spicy, sweet-tart flavor, and it holds its shape when cooked. An outstanding apple for fresh eating, it is also good baked, especially in pies. Baldwins store well. Baldwin excels as a fresh eating and cooking apple, and in c***r. Baldwin is ready for picking in October through November.
Idared is desired for its excellent cooking and baking qualities. Idareds are particularly good for baked apples, since they hold their shape when cooked. Idared apples are named after the state they were first developed—Idaho—and their rich, red color. This variety of Malus domestica is a cross between the Jonathan and Wagener, two antique apples from New York first bred in the eighteenth century. Idared apples are a wonderful storage variety; under proper cool, dry conditions, they can keep for several months.
Winesap apples have a balanced sweet-tart taste and are crisp and juicy with a creamy yellow hue. It can be eaten fresh but is primarily a culinary apple. If kept cool, Winesap apples are a good storage apple. The exact origins of the Winesap Apple are unknown but it probably dates back to the 18th century. The first known mention of this apple was in New Jersey in 1804. It was widely produced commercially in Virginia in the 19th century but became less popular in the 20th century around the 1950’s when other varieties took over demand. The apple is very firm, juicy, and crisp with a tangy flavor. The skin tends to be tough and somewhat chewy, so many people like to peel these apples before eating them.
It looks to be a very pretty autumn week coming up. We’re open later this week because of scheduling on our end; the apple look good. We have been asked about if the cold weather adversely affects the apples, and the answer is no. While we have had some very light frosts, the apples do not notice, and the trees just look more fall-ish. It is a short, but pretty time of year before we close for the season.
