Rhode Island Greening

  USDA Certified Organic Rhode Island Greening apple trees are regarded as the finest American cooking apple in early colonial times. The Rhode Island Greening apples were extremely popular in the eastern United States for over 200 years, they were sold in markets right up until the 1930s. The Rhode Island Greening apple is a fine cooking apple when it’s freshly picked,  packing plenty of tartness and later as an eating apple that keeps right into spring. The fruit is medium to large, round and symmetrical with green skin and occasional orange flush. The Rhode Island Greening apple is firm, rich, juicy, greenish-yellow flesh with peculiar, tart, refreshing, pleasantly acid flavor. One of the best pie apples and excellent for fresh eating if tree-ripened. Consider Grimes Golden, Liberty and/or White Pearmain for pollination. Triploid.
