Malus domestica ‘Beni Shogun’
Beni Shogun is a good friend to have – a sport of the ever-popular Fuji variety, scab and mildew resistant and a great choice for the organic grower! The fruit, which ripens in early Fall (almost a full month before Fuji!), is a pleasing dark red color and has an excellent, sweet, juicy flavor. Enjoy it fresh, made into a wonderful cider, or kept in a box for months.
