Ginger Gold

The Ginger Gold is a beautiful, scrumptious apple; here at Martin’s we call it the first “real apple”. It is a cross between the Harvest Apple and the Golden Delicious and combines the best features of both; the thin skin, tartness, and translucent texture of the Harvest Apple’s flesh, and the sweetness and firmer texture of the Golden Delicious. It is excellent for eating, baking, and sauces. Compared to other early varieties, it has a bit longer shelf life — about 6 weeks, but will soften and sweeten weekly.
