Ariane and Divine™ make growing apples easy as they are naturally resistant to black spot and can be grown with basically no spraying. While older varieties are often hardy to disease, these new varieties have superior fruit quality, flavour and storage, as well as being more productive.
Ariane has been grown in French organic orchards for around five years, and now Kiwi gardeners can enjoy this fantastic. The fruit is medium sized with a flattened shape and a sweet/sharp balanced flavour. Ariane ripens in late summer, and is delicious eaten straight from the tree or refrigerated for winter eating.
Divine™ is just like Royal Gala with mildly sweet flavours and moderate acidity. Light cottony crisp flesh. Divine apples are best picked in late summer, with the flavour developing when refrigerated for up to 3 months.
