Apple - Braeburn Redfield®
A bright, cherry red finish sets this Braeburn sport apart from other strains, you can literally see the difference on the tree! A full blush and good shape enhances the eye appeal of this apple. Redfield™ comes from New Zealand where they know a thing or two about Braeburn. This selection has all the juicy, sweet-tart flavor of other Braeburn strains, and it colors better.
We suggest that all APPLE varieties be cross pollinated with another variety. Golden Delicious and flowering crab apples are the most commonly used pollinators in commercial plantings.
