Marin Onfroy Apple Scionwood (Spring 2026)


An heirloom bittersweet cider apple. Also known as Marin Oufrey, Marin Oufroy.

A very vigorous tree, Marin Onfroy is hardy and productive. It will need regular pruning to maintain annual production. The tree is susceptible to fire blight. This apple is used exclusively for cider; it is not suitable for fresh eating.

These apples are medium-small, striped red over a green ground. The flesh is white and spongy with a tendency to watercore. The juice produces a rich, full cider with notes of raisins. From WSU: Tannin (percent tannic acid) 0.19; pH 4.30; SG 1.053; Brix 13.2.

Marin Onfroy was brought to America from France in 1949. Its ultimate origin is the Biscay region of Spain.

Clean vs. Regular

Our clean scion is harvested from trees grown on G.16, which is extremely sensitive to viruses. These trees would not have survived if the scion contained viruses. Our clean wood has not been lab tested. Regular = may contain one of the common latent viruses; this is not usually a problem and can be used with most rootstocks.
