Apple/Malus – Red Spy/Northern Spy/Red Prairie Spy

Redspy, also called Red Northern Spy, is a rich ruby color over a green skin in contrast to the slightly lighter red of its parent, Northern Spy. In other respects, it closely resembles Northern Spy, a large apple with spicy, sweet-tart flavor. Redspy’s creamy-colored flesh is crisp, aromatic, and juicy. It is good for both fresh eating and cooking. Look for Redspy in mid-October.
