Gala is a productive and approachable variety for growers seeking a sweet, crisp apple that is particularly popular with children. When fully tree-ripened, its flavour is much richer than that of commercially picked fruit. It also produces excellent sweet juice. We recommend a sunny position and regular fruit thinning to maintain good size and eating quality.

Price range: 26,50 € through 59,75 €
Gala is a popular commercial apple variety, with a sweet flavour and crisp flesh.
Gala is one of the most popular supermarket apple varieties, and a good mid-season variety for the garden in many areas. The sweet flavour of ripe Gala apples eaten straight from the tree is quite a surprise compared to supermarket examples. Gala is also a good variety for juicing, as you might expect the flavour is rich and sweet, useful for mixing with other sharper varieties.
