Description
Fuji is a modern apple variety that originated in Japan. It is known for its attractive pink speckled skin, sweet and crisp flesh, and long storage potential.
- Fuji is a tip-bearing variety, which means it produces fruit at the end of the branches.
- Fuji requires 500 chilling hours to set fruit, which is the amount of time the temperature is below 7°C (45°F) during winter.
- Fuji is self-fertile, which means it can produce fruit without cross-pollination from another apple variety. However, cross-pollination can improve the fruit size and quality.
- Fuji is a late-season apple, which means it ripens in late autumn or early winter. In New Zealand, it can be harvested from May to June.
- It is a cross between Rall’s Janet and Delicious.

- It has a dense flesh that contains 9-11% sugars by weight.
