Cultivation

An early-ripening, yellow apple. Origin: discovered about 1994 by Danny Johnson, Bedford, Va. Tree: Fruit: ripens early August and hangs on tree 60 days after ripening; medium-to-large size (2 1/2 to 3 1/4 inches); skin golden color with very slight blush, smooth with no russet unlike neighboring Golden Delicious; flesh resists bruising; flavor sweet, with satisfying aftertaste. Storage life similar to that of Delicious, 60 days at 40 °F, without shriveling or loss of flavor.
