Gala

The Gala apple is a crisp, firm fruit. This Golden Delicious cross originated in New Zealand. It's fine grained texture and excellent flavor makes it the perfect crunchy eating apple. The Gala is not suitable for long storage.

Honeycrisp
Honeycrisp is an extraordinarily crisp and juicy apple with a sweet flavor. It is both an excellent fresh eating and baking apple. This apple is red coloured over a yellow background.

Jonagold
A cross between Golden Delicious and Jonathan apples. Often large in size, Jonagold are firm, crisp and sweet apples. Great fresh eating. When sliced and cooked they keep their shape.

Ambrosia
This crisp, sweet and aromatic apple has a combination of red stripes over a creamy yellow background that produces an attractive pink blush. The fine-grained, cream-coloured flesh is slow to oxidize, making this apple a great choice for fruit trays, salads and desserts. Naturally sweet, Ambrosias require very little sugar when used for cooking.

Fuji
The Fuji's flesh is cream coloured, very firm, juicy and sweet. It is a large apple with a base colouring of yellow/green overlaid with red stripes. It is excellent for fresh eating or for desserts. The Fuji can be kept for several months in a fridge and remains firm and juicy.

Pink Lady
The Pink Lady has a pretty pink blush colour with white flesh. It has a refreshing lemony flavor. This apple stores well.
