Honeycrisp is a high quality eating apple with a predominantly sweet flavour. It lives up to its name - it has a light crisp flesh.
The apples are medium-to-large in size, with a light green/yellow background largely covered with red-orange flush occasionally with a hint of pink. They keep well in storage, and retain their crispness.

If you do not hear from us by March you can contact us to pre-order for next autumn.
Honeycrisp has a good track record for disease-resistance, although it has some susceptibility to mildrew. Honeycrisp leaves may show some yellowing over the summer, particularly if the crop is light, but this is mainly cosmetic.
Honeycrisp was also developed to withstand the cold winters of North America, so it is quite at home throughout northern Europe.
It is a good idea to let Honeycrisp trees reach their full size before allowing cropping to begin, so remove any fruitlets that might form in the early years.
