List of apple varieties |
Stina Lohmann (rarely also "Lohmann") is an old apple variety that originated as a seedling in Kellinghusen in Holstein around 1800 . The mother tree grew in Christina “ Stina ” Lohmann's garden and bore fruit, the long shelf life of which exceeded that of the other apple varieties - which enabled her to be able to give away apples in the spring.
The variety was later named Stina Lohmann after her and distributed in Schleswig-Holstein and western Mecklenburg , where it still occurs today as a regional variety and is grown as a lover variety for self-sufficiency.
The apple is medium to large in size and has a broad, spherical, flat, often irregular shape. It has a green-yellow basic color with a red, streaky covering color. The white flesh is firm, juicy and tastes sweet and sour with a light aroma. It can be used as a table apple or an industrial apple (as a cooking apple or for making apple juice).
The apple is ripe for picking from October and is ready to eat at the beginning of the new year - which makes it a winter apple - and can be stored until July.
The tree is robust and growing strongly.
In 2009 the “Stina Lohmann” variety was chosen as the orchard variety of the year in Northern Germany .
