This crab-apple works well for jelly, juice, baking and even for fresh eating, as it is firm, crisp and juicy, with a very good sweet-tart flavor. It is small size and dark purple-red color. They are ripe late in the season, usually October. They work very well in cider blends and are excellent keepers, up to 6 months when refrigerated.
