The Winter Banana (1876)
A showy apple - pale, thin waxy yellow skin with pink blush.
We found this mild tasting apple very hard but juicy. I chose to plant it because many people talked about its distinctive banana aftertaste; but honestly, I couldn't discern it.
Although our box of Winter Bananas looked a little spotted, there was no rot inside. The spots affected only the outside.
The Winter Banana serves as the pollinator for my Esopus Spitzenberg and also the Arkansas Black.
