Summer Rose Apples

Summer Rose are medium-sized, slightly flattened apples.

They have waxy but smooth, pale, greenish-yellow skin covered with red flushes on the side that got the sun.

Inside, they have finely-textured, tender, crisp, juicy white flesh with a sweet, sprightly, mildly tart taste.

The tree is an abundant bearer, and blooms late enough in the spring to miss most risk of frost.

The fruit ripens late June / early July. It can be picked a bit earlier for cooking.

Cooking Tips

Good for fresh-eating, apple sauce.

Storage Hints

Does not store well.

History Notes

Summer Rose Apples were grown from a seed from a Northern Spy apple in 1806 in New Jersey, USA.

Other names

AKA: Glass Apples, Lippincott Apples, Woolman’s Striped Harvest Apples
