(Macoun x Honeygold) University of MN, 1991. An exciting new apple that is exceptionally crisp and juicy. Flavor is sweet but well-balanced. Excellent storage life, up to 7 months. Has been rated equal to or higher in overall quality than Haralson, Honeygold or Keepsake in winter storage trials. Ripens in late September in MN and stores like a late season variety. Has become an outstanding commercial and home orchard variety because of its explosive crispness, flavor and storage life. Malus 'Indian Summer' is a good polinator. (trial in zone 3). CPBR #1007, C®
