Golden Delicious Apple Tree
Firm, crisp, and white-fleshed with a balanced sweet-tart aromatic flavor depending on where these apples are grown. Cool climate, the amount of acid increases resulting in a sweeter flavor. In warmer areas, the acid content is lower, creating a milder flavor. Golden yellow in color and speckled with small spots.They are small to medium in size, and tend to be conical or oblong in shape. Apple slices do not quickly brown, hence it's ideal for salads and dipping. Ideal for fresh eating and cooking homemade pies, tarts, cakes and breads. The official fruit of West Virginia.
