Rhode Island Greening apples

Rhode Island Greening is an American apple variety. It's also the official state apple of Rhode Island, with a variable size that tends to be large, round to oblong. The skin is bright green, while the texture of the flesh is creamy and firm. The flavors are intensely tart when picked, but they become slightly mellow and sweet as the apple ages.

These apples are picked from late fall through spring and they're one of the oldest American types of Malus domestica. It's recommended to cook them (especially in apple pie), eat them raw, or use them for the preparation of cider. Rhode Island Greenings store well and they can be consumed even five or six months into storage.
