Carolina Red June Apples

Carolina Red June are small to medium-sized apples.

They have glossy, pale-yellow skin flushed with red on the side that gets the sun.

Inside the white flesh is occasionally streaked red near the skin. The flesh is crisp, tender, finely-grained and juicy, with good taste.

Carolina Red June Apples are popular in the American South, where they ripen in June and July over a period of time.

The tree may bloom twice in one year, producing a small apple crop in the fall as well.

A rule of thumb for some people was use for pies in July, fresh-eating in August, and cider later.

Cooking Tips

For fresh-eating or very good in pies.
