Saint-Martin Apple on G.11 (Spring 2026)
A bittersweet, vintage-quality cider apple from France. Also known as St. Martin.
The tree is resistant to powdery mildew, but susceptible to fireblight, scab, and canker. It is traditionally used in making cider and calvados in France, but it can also be used for baking.
Saint-Martin is a small apple, yellow-green blushed orange-red, with firm cream-colored flesh. It yields a juice that is bittersweet and considered to be of vintage quality (good for making a single-variety cider) with a Brix ~ 13.5 and acidity ~ 2.27.
It is unclear whether this apple should be distinguished from the British apple St. Martin's.
