'Api Rose' bears fruit small to very small, borne often in clusters, not quick to bear, but reliable. Susceptible to apple scab where springs are wet. Women of French nobility carried it in their pockets and cherished it because they yielded no unpleasant scent. The small, crisp, white colored flesh is used in desserts and cider. Flesh white, firm, fine-grained; flavor aromatic, mild subacid becoming nearly sweet. Also widely used in Christmas decorations and stockings, hence the name christmas apple. Keeps all winter though it is a slow grower. Minimum of 6 hours of sun required during growing season. 'Lady' is a cross-pollinator which is best pollinated by the varieties 'Nonesuch' and 'Kidd's Orange'. -- edited by dtd pbcouchman
