Washed Russet Custom Benchgraft

A very large russet apple discovered by Conrad Gemmer. This apples markings and shadings of yellow and bronze russet with patches of clear shiny skin gave it the appearance of having been washed. It has crisp juicy flavorful flesh useful for dessert or culinary purposes and is a heavy, consistent bearer. It sometimes develops a pronounced reddish brown cheek when exposed to the sun.
