Chenango Strawberry

Introduced around 1850, Chenango Strawberry is an early-season apple that was highly popular and sought after during its heyday in the U.S. northeast for its appearance, aroma and flavor. As with so many other great and regional varieties it almost disappeared once mass marketing took over the apple world, leaving people with few varieties to choose among at the grocery store. Medium to large fruit smooth, yellowish or greenish skin striped with crimson. Flesh juicy, mildly subacid, aromatic with a hint of strawberries.
