SLH New Zealand/USA Rose Apple 红玫瑰苹果
Key Description: The distinctive rosy-red blush makes this apple too pretty to resist. A natural Gala/Splendour cross, Rose Apple gets its signature pink hue from Splendour (a heritage apple variety from New Zealand), and its unique taste profile combines both parents’ flavors to perfection. Refreshing, sweet and crisp— Rose Apple is more than just good looks.
Developed in New Zealand, Rose Apple is named for its rosy complexion and the ocean that surrounds the island where it all began.
This pink beauty made its North American debut in 1996, when the first imports arrived. Now grown in both New Zealand and Washington state, Pacific Rose™ thrives in the rich, fertile soil of the Pacific Northwest and is delighting apple lovers everywhere.
