Schlect Spur Delicious



A C&O Exclusive Variety.
Found in a block of spur Reds in Yakima. While the block was just beginning to color, the Schlect was at full color in mid-August. No other early red sport colors or matures sooner. No other early red spur type sport has whiter flesh. Tests indicate the brix level allows for the earliest picking opportunities.

This sport red begins to color in June and reaches full blush color by mid-August. The fruit sizes and colors equal to the other early coloring blush sports in the marketplace. Schlect Spur gives you, the grower, the advantage of large, typey fruit which can be picked earlier than other blush red sports. Crisp and juicy flesh. Semi-dwarf and spur-type tree allows for ease of growth for the orchardist. Put the Schlect Spur Delicious into your orchard and see how no other comparable variety can match its value.
