Description

Macoun (pronounced ma cow en) is a purplish skinned apple with "breaking" flesh, as in exceptionally crispy. Best for local markets and backyards since it bruises easily. Stores about 3 months in good storage but softens. Ripens in mid October in Walden. Thick skin. McIntosh x Jersey black cross.
