A new variety of apples from the United States is designed to conquer the world. A lot of money was invested in the "super apple", and its inventors are sure that they will quickly pay off.
Space Crisp arrives in the United States in December. Before his market debut, he became a topic of discussion in countless American and international media. In particular, the Financial Times and the British Telegraph wrote about it, who called it a “marketing flash” with the most expensive comparable campaign in history.
In the state of Washington, where many apples are grown, new varieties are selling worse and worse.
Therefore, a group of scientists at the University of Washington (WSU) began a search for a new variety and raised Space Crisp between 1997 and 2013, a cross between Honeycrisp and Enterprise. In 2017, the first trees were planted.
In addition to all the possible promises made by his marketers, an apple, first of all, should stay fresh much longer than any other variety. It should be able to be stored for ten to twelve months without problems under appropriate conditions.
In addition, these fruits should not receive such fast darkening from strokes as in other varieties, and the flesh will discolor more slowly.
