Lucy™ Rose is a unique apple variety that boasts a sweet and slightly tart flavor with a hint of berry, a beautiful red exterior, and naturally red inside. These medium to large apples are perfect for snacking, salads, and baking recipes. The skin is semi-thin, smooth, glossy, and has a bright yellow-green base hue that is usually covered in dark red to crimson blush. The flesh is delightfully firm, dense, and crisp, with a sweet-tart flavor that has hints of berries. It's perfect for eating and fruit and cheese platters.

QUESTIONS & ANSWERS

Ask a Question
  • I have a king apple tree. Planted it 3 years ago & no fruit yet. Had a Cosmic Crisp for a pollinator, but it died over Winter. I learned today the King Apple tree needs 2 pollinator’s. I bought a Lucy Rose tree today. Will Lucy Rose be a compatible pollinator for the King Apple tree? What’s a compatible pollinator that will work for both trees?

    King apples are triploid apples, which means that they need a pollinizer (a compatible plant for pollination), but just one. That said, whatever is used as a pollinizer will need it's own pollinizer because the King does not produce usable pollen. Lucy Rose is a group 4 apple, which means that it will pollinate your King apple just fine. Cosmic Crisp is also a group 4 apple, so they would make a fine trio.
