Rubinette Apple

Malus domestica ‘Rubinette’

The intensely sweet yet complex flavor of darling Rubinette, a cross between Golden Delicious and Cox’s Orange Pippin, will please fans of the Cox crosses – and everyone else! Loads of incredibly delicious, small-medium, attractive dessert apples, golden with red stripes, ripen late – in early October in the PNW.
