Overview & Description

The Norkent Apple (Malus Norkent) is a hardy northern treasure prized for its crisp, sweet-tart flesh and charming green skin streaked with red blush and light russeting. This versatile apple offers aromatic flavor with honeyed sweetness and refreshing acidity. Developed in Albertas harsh climate, it delivers reliable harvests of medium-sized fruit with old-fashioned appeal, ripening in early September.

Growth & Size

This variety exhibits a vigorous, upright-spreading, and productive growth habit. It forms a medium-sized, well-branched tree, typically reaching a mature size of about 4 to 5 meters (13 to 16 feet) in both height and spread.

Additional Notes

It blooms in mid-spring with white to pink flowers, with fruit ripening in early September. Prairie-adapted for Zone 2-3 resilience, it thrives where other apples struggle. A remarkable shelf life stores fresh for up to 12 weeks. Dual-purpose excellence makes it ideal for fresh snacks, pies, sauces, or cider. An outstanding choice for northern orchards seeking a long-lasting, flavorful apple with complex taste and reliable performance.
