Red Jonaprince Apple
Netherlands
M9; M26; MM106
Early to mid-September
This apple variety was developed in the Netherlands in 1994. It is a mutant of Jonagold and is known in Europe as the "Prince" apple. It produces high yields and is popular in the market due to its fruit size and attractive color. A single Jonaprince apple provides half of the daily recommended intake of vitamin C. The variety shows consistent annual yields with uniform fruits, which can be stored for extended periods, making them suitable for export as a winter apple. The fruit stores exceptionally well.
Balanced sugar and acidity levels create a sweet, slightly tart, and honeyed flavor that lingers on the palate. Some apples may taste more acidic when freshly harvested, but their flavor mellows in storage, reducing acidity and enhancing sweet notes.
The fruit is large to very large, conical in shape (70–90 mm in diameter), and dark red (95–100% coverage). The skin is glossy and smooth, nearly entirely covered with an intense dark red, even on shaded sides of the tree. Red Jonaprince has higher sugar content and firmness compared to other Jonagold varieties. The flesh is very firm, crisp, and cream-green in color.
Gala, Golden Delicious, Idared.
Winter-hardy variety resistant to frost, though protective measures are recommended. Rarely susceptible to scab, aphids, powdery mildew, or bitter rot.
You can purchase seedlings of Apple Red Jonaprince at our garden center in the nursery located at Gornjem Crnjelovu, Glavna 65a.
Upon collection of the goods (seedlings), the Agromedžik nursery no longer has the possibility of supervision or care, and therefore cannot provide any further guarantee. Since seedlings are living beings, it is not possible to give a guarantee even a day after they leave the nursery. We cannot influence their maintenance and care, and consequently their further growth and development.
Our plants regularly undergo phytosanitary and vegetative inspections, therefore we do not have diseased or infected plants.
Planting is done from late October to mid-April, avoiding periods of frost and drought.
Trim the roots, then the branches into 3 to 4 rings. At the beginning of March, cut the seedlings to a height of 80 - 120 cm.
Before planting, soak the plant in water for at least 2 - 3 hours.
Dig a hole, in the previously prepared soil, measuring 60 x 60 x 50 cm for the soil (40 x 40 x 40 cm) so that the roots and part of the stem are well placed, taking care that the grafting point is outside the soil.
Place the plant in the hole and cover it with dry soil, gently press it down so that it gets well between the roots.
Fertilizer and seedling roots must not be in direct contact.
Pour with 20-30 liters of water. During periods of drought in the first year of planting, it is necessary to water young seedlings more often.
Containerized seedlings can be planted throughout the year.
*Applies to bare root seedlings.
