This is the favorite apple of kids and those with gourmet taste because of its good looks and sweet taste. Gala is distinguished by a fine, firm and crisp texture combined with a sweet, very juicy and spicy rich taste. Medium size, light golden yellow with a pinkish-orange blush. Striking, almost peach-like appearance. Gala's grandparents are Red and Golden Delicious, and Cox's Orange Pippen. Gala is good for all purposes, including raw in salads. Smaller Galas are perfect "lunchbox-sized" snacks for your children.

Gala ripens in early September. It is one of our best-selling varieties, and we have more trees of this type than any other.
