Cosmic Crisp®, Apple (Semi-Dwarf)
A new and popular variety, Cosmic Crisp® is a cross between Enterprise and Honeycrisp apple varieties. It was developed by Bruce Barrit and Kate Evans at WSU's Tree Fruit Research and Extension Center in Wenatchee, Washington. After two decades of work, this remarkable variety was finally released to the public in 2019. The goal of the project was to produce an apple that embodies the best of both its parents with an emphesis on texture, flavor and long storage capabilities - and Cosmic Crisp® does not disappoint! It is juicy and crispy, just like Honeycrisp, and yet has great storage capabilities like Enterprise. The fruit is slow to brown when sliced and has excellent flavor with a very nice balance of sweet and tart.
Pollinator required - must plant near a compatible variety of apple for fruit production.
Please Note: Cosmic Crisp® is a patented variety that requires a special license to propagate and is not allowed to be sold outside of Washington state at this time. Cosmic Crisp® is a traditionally bred apple variety and is non-GMO as are all our plant cultivars.
