Gala Apples

The Crimson Gala apple is an intense-coloring strain of Gala. It exhibits similar size and flavor when compared to its parent, Tenroy Gala, but matures a few days later. Compared to other Gala strains, Crimson begins coloring earlier, developing a bright, cherry red color early in the season. It has a prominently striped skin and pale flesh. They are fairly resistant to bruising and are sweet, grainy, with a mild flavor and a thinner skin than most apples. They are a softer apple. Gala apples can be added to salads, or cooked, and are especially suitable for creating sauces. Gala apples ranked at number 2 in 2006 on the US Apple Association's list of most popular apples.
