Spartan Apple was raised in 1926 by R.C.Palmer at the Dominion Experiment Station, Summerland, British Columbia, Canada. Introduced in 1936. Fruits have firm, crisp, fine-textured, juicy flesh with a refreshing vinous flavour. A great favourite with children (and adults) being small, juicy and delicious. Great eaten off the tree. Bred from the famous Macintosh it has bright red skin and white flesh.
