Jonagold

Jonagold is a cultivar of Apple, a cross between Golden Delicious and Jonathan. They form a large sweet fruit with a thin skin. However because of their large size they are not now favoured by commercial growers in many parts of the world. Jonagold is triploid, and as such not only requires a second type of apple for pollen but are also incapable of providing pollen for other trees. The Jonagold Apple is covered under United States Patent PP05937.
