description for "Apples: Malus 'Scarlet Surprise'"
New from Oregon State University, Scarlet Surprise lives up to its name. The blossoms are pink, and the foliage has a reddish cast as does the bark. But best of all, the dark-red fruit, shaped like Red Delicious, is bright red inside. And it's not a novelty! Scarlet Surprise is one of the most flavorful of the red-fleshed apples. So surprise your family and friends with this astonishing, truly unique apple. Ripens early September. Needs a polinator - Starkrimson® Red Delicious or Stark® Golden Delicious are recommeneded. Zones 4-8. Edited by M.Tate
