Piros is a robust early apple .
description
It has predominantly medium fruit size and appears rather frustoconical. It is a beautifully colored early apple, very crisp, but only partially storable. Its basic color is yellowish-green, the top color changes to flaming red with increasing ripeness. The flesh is green-yellow and has a sweet-sour taste. Flowering begins in the second half of April and lasts until mid-May. It is ready to be picked from the beginning of July to mid-August and can therefore only be stored for a few weeks.
The tree has a loose crown structure and has few branches. It prefers sunny locations.
