Early Fuji Apple Tree
Description
Your favorite Fuji, but 5-6 weeks sooner! Also known as Beni Shogun, it is a sport of Yataka. Nicely rounded apples are a big handful of good eating: the dense, creamy-white flesh has a marvelous texture. A very sweet, low-acid apple with complex overtones of fresh citrus and honey. The skin is rich red, with small splashes of yellow-gold and light striping. Great for fresh-eating and cooking. Ripens in September. Pollinator required: Choose another apple variety. See Recommended Pollinators below.
