Stark® Ruby Darling™ Apple

It’s a keeper! A natural cross resulting in the best of Honeycrisp and Gala! Large cherry-red apples have an elegant shape. Extra-large cells deliver a distinctive crisp-crunch and refreshingly sweet juice. Cook them or eat them fresh… these apples do double-duty. Tree has an open, spreading growth habit and is a heavy-bearer. Keeps for 4-5 months in proper cold storage. Originates from Winchester, Illinois in 2000. Ripens in early October. Pollinator required: Choose another apple variety like Starkspur® Red Rome Beauty, Stark® Jon-A-Red® Jonathan or any Golden Delicious. May be covered by USPP #30,978 or other patents.
