Episode 37 - What is a Tokyo Rose Apple?

For this podcast episode I am sharing about the Tokyo Rose apple that also goes by the name Akane. Learn what this variety is like and what it might be called in your neck of the woods.

In the east, I have seen it called Akane. In the west, I have seen it called Tokyo Rose. And sometimes vice verse! This is an early season apple that helps roll out the carpet for the apple season. Learn all about this apple variety and why I love the early season apples even if they don’t last super long.
