Rave Apple® Variety for Superior Fruit Innovation™ Grower Members

Technology No. 20110037

Description

RAVE® apples are produced from the ‘MN55’ apple variety developed by the University of Minnesota. ‘MN55’ was developed from a cross between ‘Honeycrisp’ and ‘AA44’, a variety from the University of Arkansas. This innovative cross has resulted in a widely popular apple that exhibits early ripening, excellent coloration, and unique crisp and tart flavor across multiple environments.

RAVE® brand ‘MN55’ apples have the ability to extend your production season and provide brightly tart, irresistibly juicy eating experience to your orchard - give it a try and see what everyone is raving about!

‘MN55’ meeting grade standards and grown in Minnesota is sold under the First Kiss® trademark. If you are a Minnesota grower please contact superiorfruit@umn.edu for access to the exclusive MN license.

Please note: This apple has also demonstrated an unusually long storage life for an early ripening variety. It requires attention to established cultural practices to control biennial bearing and fruit drop.

License agreement coming soon!
