This year I have three of apple breeder Albert Etter's red fleshed apples fruiting. They are very unique and interesting apples, though they still represent unfinished work. Red fleshed apples will be coming more and more into the public eye over the coming years. They could have arrived much sooner had anyone taken up Etter's work, which was already well started. With all their faults, these apples are still worth growing. Also a short video on Gold Rush, which might be the apple I've seen most universally endorsed by home growers for flavor, keeping ability and disease resistance.
Four red fleshed apple varieties, Grenadine, Rubaiyat, Pink Parfait and Christmas Pink. These "blood apples" bred by Albert Etter, can look and taste amazing and should be more widely grown by home orchardists.

Gold Rush Apple variety (co-op 38) is loved by many home growers for flavor, long keeping and disease resistance. Should be high on the list of apples to consider for home orchards and homesteads by reputation alone. Support my channel by using this link whenever you shop on Amazon.
