Harcourt Apple
Fall Red Apple

The Harcourt apple is a cold hardy apple produced by the University of Alberta. The fruit is good for fresh eating or baking, and ripens in late August.

The Fall Red Apple produces large ruby red apples with white flesh that are crisp and sweet. This delicious fruit is great for fresh eating or baking, with a good storage life. Its showy clusters of white flowers in spring add fragrance and beauty to your garden or yard.

Like most apples, the Fall Red apple will produce fruit on its own, but can benefit from another variety of apple (such as Prairie Sensation Apple) for cross pollination. It is a disease resistant alternative to the McIntosh Apple.
