Description of the variety

It is not just snacking; Red Prince® is the perfect dessert apple. Of course, it also goes well in cakes, desserts or other food.

With its deep red skin and the cream-coloured fruit flesh, it is popular with many consumers. It is also very crisp and juicy. The variety not only captivates children with its sweet taste. Red Prince® is loved by apple connoisseurs of any age.

Whoever likes to buy more than just one Red Prince® and prefers to not finish them all at once can rest assured, as this apple has excellent storage characteristics.

As with all other apple varieties, a cool, dark location is of course the best place, such as the basement or the vegetable drawer in your refrigerator.

Why is this apple called Red Prince®? It was named after its growers, the Prince brothers. They own a nursery in the Netherlands, where the variety was discovered and grafted in 1994.

The cultivation of Red Prince® apples

Red Prince® is produced exclusively according to controlled integrated fruit production methods.

This is an environmentally friendly farming method: The fruit growers optimally coordinate all cultivation steps, including tillage, irrigation, shading. Targeted plant protection measures are taken only if a specific damage threshold is exceeded. However, such measures can considerably reduce the population of “insect helpers”. A balanced relationship pattern between beneficial insects and pests is therefore paramount for successful cultivation.

The growing regions

Red Prince® apples are mainly grown by Elbe-Obst in the Alten Land region northwest of Hamburg. In addition, significant amounts are produced in the Lake Constance region in southern Germany.
Integrated production is controlled in the north by the Chamber of Agriculture of Lower Saxony under the title “Fruit from the Alten Land”. In the south, the controls are conducted under the “Quality Label of Baden-Württemberg”.

The quality assurance systems QS, GLOBALGAP and IFS encompass the entire process chain from cultivation to marketing and ensure each apple can be traced back to its producer.
