Apple fruit seedlings – Mutsu

The Mutsu (Mucu) apple, ripening in late September and early October, is a top choice among fruit growers due to its exceptional quality and rich flavor. The tree of this apple variety is medium vigorous, with branches that spread under the weight of large to very large fruits, which are irregularly round and very appealing.

The fruits, which resemble Golden Delicious but are much higher quality, have a yellow-green skin with a slight blush on the sunny side. The flesh is firm, juicy, with a sweet-tart flavor that delights the palate. The Mutsu apple flowers moderately late, which allows it to adapt to various climatic conditions.

This variety is sensitive to winter frosts but resistant to powdery mildew and drought, making it a reliable choice for orchards. It is a triploid variety and requires at least two pollinators beside it to achieve optimal yield. It bears fruit early and regularly, making it a favorite among fruit growers.

For optimal yield, the Mutsu apple requires suitable pollinators. Granny Smith, Red Delicious, and Ajdared have proven to be excellent pollinators, contributing to a rich and high-quality harvest. With careful planning and combining with the right pollinators, pollination and fertility are ensured, leading to the successful cultivation of this exceptional apple variety.

With its outstanding quality and reliability, the Mutsu apple continues to win the hearts of fruit lovers around the world, standing out as a top choice in the fruit industry.
