Galarina™ X-4982 CV. Apple on G.11 (Spring 2021)
A disease-resistant offspring of Gala that shows improved storage flavor. Also known as x-4982, Galarina.
This is a very grower-friendly apple. Highly tolerant of fireblight, scab, and mildew, hardier than Gala (to -13°F), Galarina™ X-4982 cv. is upright-spreading, vigorous, and productive.
The mid-season (one-two weeks after McIntosh) fruit resembles Gala: it is smallish and flushed orange-red. The crisp, sweet flesh has a well-balanced, aromatic flavor, but unlike Gala, Galarina™ X-4982 cv. will preserve the nuances of its flavor in storage for up to four months. This apple even hangs well on the tree–for up to four weeks after harvest–and, if you can bear to leave them for the deer, it makes a great wildlife variety. Galarina™ is an all-round outstanding apple.
Galarina™ X-4982 cv. was developed in France and tested in Quebec. It is a cross of Gala and Florina (Querina).
