SummaryHard cider apple
Very similar to Kentish Bigareau.
Stanley is a widely-grown European plum, used mainly for culinary purposes. It is heavy-cropping, and easy to grow.
Essentially an improved Elstar, with a bit more sharpness.
Hardy substitute for Golden Delicious developed especially for cold northern areas. Golden Delicious flavor, Haralson hardiness. Medium to large golden to greenish fruit with very smooth finish and reddish bronze blush. Flavor is sweeter and more bland than Golden Delicious. High quality. Superior storage qualities.
