About Barnsby Pink Lady
The Barnsby™ Pink Lady® apple tree is an improved Cripps Pink selection known for its brilliant pink-red blush, crisp texture, and signature sweet-tart flavor. This variety thrives in cooler climates, where its color deepens and its sugars fully develop, producing fruit with exceptional eating quality. Its apples are dense, aromatic, and slow to brown, making them ideal for fresh eating and salads. A late-harvest apple with superb storage life, Barnsby is one of the most reliable and attractive Pink Lady® strains for the Pacific Northwest.
