Ginger Gold: “Early Golden Delicious”

An outstanding early season apple, Ginger Gold is sweet, juicy and firm. Fine textured, with crisp, cream colored flesh, it is excellent for eating and salads. Ginger Gold is very slow to turn brown so it’s an excellent choice for any fresh cut apple use. Keeps up to six months in storage. This apple was found as a chance seedling in the orchards of Clyde and Ginger Harvey in Virginia.
