Fruit ripening time: March - April

 

A mildly sweet apple with a touch of acid that is refreshing. Jonathan has considerable flavour and a good aroma.

 

A medium sized apple, with a rosy red cheek on the sunny side, and yellow-green undertones.The flesh is a creamy yellow, with a fine texture, good crunch and lots of juice.

 

This beloved apple originated in America from a chance seedling, and has such qualities that it is a parent to many other fine apples, such as Akané, Bonza and Jonagold.

 

Uses: Excellent fresh eating. Also good in cooking as it will retain its shape for baking, and will cook down to make a fine sauce. The flavour partners well with other apples, and can even be added to soups. Also useful for juicing and drying. Has a fair storage life when refrigerated.
