| Cherry Bigarreau de Mezel | Apple Smoothee Golden Delicious | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Summary | Heart-shaped. A little fibrous, moderately juicy, good flavour. | Continues to be the most russet-resistant Golden Delicious strain, allowing quality Goldens to be grown where proneness to russetting would otherwise prohibit Golden production. Essentially the same as Golden Delicious except for skin smoothness and russet resistance. | |||
