Devonshire Crimson Queen Apple Scionwood

$30.25

Devonshire Crimson Queen is extremely rare in the U.S. We adore these apples as they are delicious, early, disease resistant and seem unmolested by insects. These apples start out fairly sharp and get sweeter as they sit. Late in their season, or after a month or storage, they have a distinct berry flavor. On the tree they will look as though they range in color from solid red to totally green. Their season stretches over several weeks and so we start out picking only the solid red and come back every few days to pick just those. Only in the last pickings should those less red apples be harvested. When these are deepest red, especially in cooler seasons when they can ripen slowly, they will have lovely dark pink blush inside the flesh that starts near the skin and can continue all the way to the core. Their strawberry flavors get stronger later in their season and after storage. These apples have been fabulous every single season regardless of new insects, hail, heat waves, massive rain and any other weather anomaly we’ve experienced.
