Apple - ‘Belle de Boskoop’ or 'Schone van Boskoop'
$56.00
Medium to Large. Orange & yellow skin with a red blush, sometimes russeted. A firm, crisp tart apple with full flavour. Very aromatic. The white-green flesh is dense and has a very firm texture. Freshly sliced, Boskoop is quite an acidic & tart apple.
This & its large size make it unsuitable as a snack apple, but it slices well to share after eating. It is most popular in Germany as a winter and Christmas apple. Sweetens with storage. Stores for 3-4 months or more.
Ripening March.
