Apple Cultivars
Over 7,500 cultivars of the culinary or eating apple (''Malus domestica'') are known. Some are extremely important economically as Product (business), commercial products, though the vast majority are not suitable for mass production. In the following list, use for "eating" means that the fruit is consumed raw, rather than cooked. Cultivars used primarily for making cider are indicated. Those varieties marked have gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit. This list does not include the species and varieties of apples collectively known as crab apples, which are grown primarily for ornamental purposes, though they may be used to make jelly or compote.

Parentage = Esopus Spitzenburg x ? *Sugar 12.5% *Acid 7.7 g/litre *Vitamin C 5mg/100g. History There are two alternative theories about the origin of the Jonathan apple. The first theory; it was grown by Rachel Negus Higley, who gathered seeds from the local cider mill in Connecticut. This was before the family made their journey to the wilds of Ohio in 1796, where she planted them. She continued to carefully cultivate her orchard to maturity and named the resulting variety after a young local boy, Jonathan Lash, who frequented her orchard. The other, more accepted, theory is that it originated from an Esopus Spitzenburg seedling in 1826, on the farm of Philip Rick(s) in Woodstock (town), New York, Woodstock, Ulster County, New York. A DNA profiling study supports this descent. Although it may have originally been called the "Ricks" apple, ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
