Granny Smith Apple

Malus domestica 'Granny Smith' · Rosaceae

An Australian chance seedling from Ryde, NSW, prized for its bright green skin and tart, crisp, long-keeping flesh that suits both cooking and eating. Vigorous and reliable, ripening late in the season and a good pollinator for other apples.
