Apple Tree - Northern Spy
Apple Tree - Northern Spy Northern Spy Apple (Red Spy, Nortern Red Spy) is large, round, and often flattened. The skin is greenish yellow with pinkish red stripes, a delicate bloom, and occasional russet patches. This apple is rather firm, aromatic and has a subacid flavor. The flesh is very tender, finely grained, crisp, juicy, and tart. It remains remakably fresh after a long storage period. The Northern Spy is an excellent all purpose apple, but is not good for drying or making apple cider. The tree is very large, upright, a vigorous grower, and productive. It blooms late in the season and takes about 12 years to bear fruit. Ripens in late October and tends to bear biennially. Requires a pollinator such as Golden Delicious.

There are numerous light colored small sunken dots on the surface of the fruit. The flesh is yellowish in color, and the apple is juicy, crisp, and fine.
