Aprica is an Italian (C.I.V.) new variety with a medium early season ripening range. The fruit ripes approximately four days after Clery. Shiny red, cone-shaped fruits with a beautiful gloss feature this variety. The fruits are continuously big with a high profit of each individual fruit. That is the reason why this variety is easy to pick. The harvest of Aprica is good with a high percentage of class 1 fruits.
With its outstanding shelf life, Aprica is recommended as a variety for the wholesale market. Aprica is a strong plant, it grows upright and is therefore resistant to leave- and root diseases. It grows underneath leaves and as a result it is protected against frost and heavy rain.
Unfortunately, the taste is not good enough for direct marketing.
Aprica is herbicide sensitive, especially regarding Phenmedipharm products
