Golden Delicious
Golden Delicious is a very popular as a supermarket apple variety, and
now undergoing something of a rehabilitation amongst apple enthusiasts
who are re-discovering its potential.
The variety was discovered by a West Virginia farmer at the end of the 19th
century. It is generally considered to be a seedling of Grimes Golden, to
which it bears a strong esemblance. The variety was soon taken up by the
famous Stark Brothers nursery, who were so impressed by it that they bought
the original tree and an area of land around it.The tree lived on into the
1950s, by which time it had become firmly established as one of the world's
great apple varieties.

Yellow peel and sweetly tangy flavor make a
tempting snack.
One of the best pollinators for other varieties
so much so that it’s been called a “rooster”
tree! Best as a short-storage eating apple.
