    ADAMS PEARMAIN Herefordshire, England 1862 Oct 15 Nov Mar 14 Adams Pearmain is a an old-fashioned late dessert apple, one of the most popular varieties in Victorian England. It has an attractive 'pearmain' shape. This is a fairly dry apple - which is perhaps not regarded as a desirable attribute today. In spite of this it is actually a very enjoyable apple, with a rich aromatic flavour which in apple terms is usually described as Although it had 'shelf appeal' for the Victorian housewife, its autumnal colouring is probably too subdued to compete with the bright young things of the modern supermarket shelves. Perhaps this is part of its appeal; it recalls a bygone era where subtlety of flavour was appreciated - a lovely apple to savour in front of an open fire on a cold winter's day. Tree hardy. Does will in all soils, even clay. AERLIE RED FLESH (Hidden Rose, Mountain Rose) California 1930’s 19 20 20 Cook Oct 20 15 An amazing red fleshed apple, discovered in Aerlie, Oregon, which may be the best of all red fleshed varieties and indeed would be an outstandingly delicious apple no matter what color the flesh is. A choice seedling, Aerlie Red Flesh has a beautiful yellow skin with pale whitish dots, but it is inside that it excels. Deep rose red flesh, juicy, crisp, hard, sugary and richly flavored, ripening late (October) and keeping throughout the winter. The late Conrad Gemmer, an astute observer of apples with 500 varieties in his collection, rated Hidden Rose an outstanding variety of top quality.

Replies have been received from the following countries: Canada, Czech Republic, Finland, France, Germany, Italy, Netherlands, New Zealand, Poland, Slovakia, South Africa, Sweden, Switzerland and the USA. This note also includes the documents compiled for the same purpose and submitted to the fifty-second session of the Specialized Section. I. Documents submitted to the 52nd session of the Specialized Section A. UNECE Standard for Apples – List of Varieties At the last meeting the 51 st session of the Specialized Section GE.1 the delegation of the United Kingdom offered to coordinate efforts to simplify the list of apple varieties. The aim was to see what the result would be if we only include the most important varieties that are produced and traded. The list is designed to help distinguish apple varieties by colour groups, size and russeting it is not exhaustive, non-listed varieties can still be marketed. The idea should not be to list every variety grown in every country. The UK asked for views on what were considered to be the most important top thirty varieties. Eight countries sent their views, Italy, Spain, the Netherlands, USA, Slovakia, Germany Finland and the Czech Republic.

  • Sweetango Shipping from Applewood Is Under Way
    - Advertisement - SweeTango shipping from Applewood is under way September 4, 2019 Applewood Fresh Growers LLC packed its first SweeTango of the season over Labor Day weekend. “Now we’re rocking and rolling” in the new Michigan apple season, said Scott Swindeman, who owns the Sparta, MI-based firm. Applewood's SweeTango harvest began Aug. 26. The fruit “needs to sit for four or five days before packing,” thus the delay until Labor Day. “In Michigan, the color and finish on the fruit is by far the nicest crop we ever had," said Swindeman. "The size is a little disappointing, but the crop is very, very good.” 1 / 2 Overall in Michigan, the apple crop is three or four days later than a year ago. “We’ve had outstanding weather,” Swindeman added. “We’ve had cool temperatures at night and sunny days. We are experiencing the kind of weather we always like to have at this time of the year. For the previous two or three years, it was not like this early on” in the harvest season. Applewood’s harvest of McIntosh and Premier Honeycrisp, an early-maturing Honeycrisp straink, was just beginning in the first week of September.
