List of apple varieties |
Ingrid-Marie , also called Hoed Orange , is one of the traditional apple varieties of the Old Country .
description
Ingrid-Marie was raised as a random seedling around 1910 on the grounds of the Flemløse Horticultural School on the island of Funen ( Denmark ) . Cox orange is suspected to be one of the parent varieties . The strong red, firm skin, the color of which can continue in the outermost flesh , suggests a relationship with reindeer varieties .
Ingrid-Marie is particularly suitable for locations that are not too warm, but rather humid.
The fruits are ripe in mid to late September and can be stored until around January.
The sweet and sour taste of Ingrid-Marie is reminiscent of Cox-Orange, whereby the tree is much more productive and resilient than Cox-Orange. Today, Ingrid-Marie is being replaced more and more by sweeter and higher-yielding varieties.
This variety is particularly susceptible to fruit tree cancer .
