Red Delicious Apple is one of the better known apple varieties. It is a
vigorous, productive tree that produces medium to large fruit. Good for
eating, but not cooking, this crisp and juicy apple has a waxy red skin
with pure white sweet flesh. Its distinctive, delicious flavor makes it a
best seller at world-wide markets.

Red Delicious Apple was developed in 1870 from seedling rootstock after a
scion had broken off on Jesse Hiatt's farm in Peru, Iowa. It was
originally named Hawkeye but renamed when one of the commercially known
Stark brothers bit into one and exclaimed "My, that's delicious!"

Red Delicious Apple is a high chill apple. It requires 800 chilling hours
required for fruit to set. Fruit ripens in fall. Apple trees have a
greater yield if two or more varieties are available for cross
pollination. Red Delicious Apple is a good pollinator for almost all
other apples.
