Fuji Step-Over

A well known variety developed in Japan from it's parent Red Delicious. An attractive red skin, crisp yellowish flesh, uncomplicated deep sweet flavour and is always predictably juicy. Medium to large sized fruit. Fuji stores well - improving in quality and flavour. A thoroughly modern apple, and one of the latest maturing varieties. Suitable for low-chill conditions.

As we grow it on other rootstocks, be sure that you want it as a Step-over.

Pollination Guide

  • Pollination is far simpler than most people think. Generally, unless self fertile simply get 2 or more different varieties in the same group (eg pears) to ensure adequate pollination. A more comprehensive explanation can be found in our Pollination Guide
