A variety of apple that is a cross
between a Golden Russet and an Alexander. It is a large apple with pale
green to yellow outer skin, with a russet area around the stem, and a cream
colored firm textured flesh. It has a slightly tart flavor and is a good
apple for baking or cooking.
Medium-sized, green to yellow in
color, sweet-tart flavor which intensifies with cooking, good for
hand-eating, mostly sold as a commercial crop for applesauce, pies etc.,
since both flavor and texture hold up well to heat, available October to
April primarily in the eastern and central U.S.
