biodiverseed: Malus xRedlove ‘Circe’This red-fleshed cultivar was developed in 2010—after 20 painstaking years of work by Swiss breeder Markus Kobert—along with ‘siblings Redlove ‘Era,’ Redlove ‘Sirena,’ Redlove ‘Odysso,’ and Redlove ‘Calypso.’ It is conventionally listed as a cultivar of Malus domestica, but is likely a cross between scab-resistant cultivars of that species, and cultivar of an older red-fleshed apple species like Malus niedzwetskyana or Malus baccata. Apple Height: 3-4 m; Spread: 3-4 m Green leaves Magenta flowers, followed by large, sweet, red-fleshed apples, which are higher in antioxidant anthocyanins that white-fleshed apples Virtually immune to apple scab Info: Original Post; Deutsch Wikipedia Image: Wowcher More: Apples in a Zone 8 Danish Forest Garden #Malus -- source link
