EverCrisp®
EverCrisp® is a controlled cross of Honeycrisp and Fuji. It is an attractive 3-inch apple that ripens two weeks after Golden Delicious (mid to late October for New York). It is very sweet and somewhat harder than Honeycrisp but with a similar crunch. It is closer to a Fuji in appearance but has the Honeycrisp texture. It maintains quality for extended periods under adverse conditions. The name comes from its greatest characteristic, which is storability. (MAIA 1) USPP#24,579

Pink Lady® Barnsby
Matures 3 to 4 weeks earlier than the standard Cripps Pink variety of Pink Lady®. This is a benefit for growers concerned about harvesting Pink Lady® apples too late and exposing them to freezes. In addition, the Barnsby doesn’t need to be stored before shipping, as other Pink Lady® varieties need to be. USPP# 21,606
