Royal Red Honeycrisp®, Willow Drive Nursery
Discovered in the Columbia Basin, this exciting new color sport of Honeycrisp is catching attention. Royal Red Honeycrisp® is a blush-type selection and maintains the crisp, juicy texture of its parent that so many consumers have come to love. Beyond the high color factor, initial tests indicate that its improved storage characteristics may be equally important in improving pack-out. As with its parent, the tree is low vigor and care should be taken not to crop it too soon. USPP #22,244.
