Flamin' Early Red(TM) Apple

Malus domestica 'Flamin' Early Red(TM)'
  • Summary
  • Hardiness Zone & More

Flamin' Early Red(TM) apple is an improvement over the old Mollies Delicious, which is not a true Red Delicious, but is very similar in appearance and flavor. It ripens almost three or more weeks ahead with Gala and McIntosh. It is large and conic with mostly red color over a yellow background. It has a very pleasing flavor and will keep quite well for several weeks.  The tree is somewhat spurry.

Flamin' Early Red(TM) Apple comes from Grandpa's peach breeding friend, Paul Friday, who developed all the Flamin'Fury(R) peaches.  He discoved this spurrier sport of Mollies Delicious on his farm several years ago, and has been working with it for many years.

Flamin' Early Red(TM) Apple is a sport of Mollies Delicious.  It is  an early blooming variety and should be pollinated with similar blooming varieties. The tree is somewhat vigorous, productive and somewhat spreading, but with a more spurry habit than regular Mollies Delicious.
