5' Brought to the United States in the 1970s, Gala Apple is a medium-sized apple that is a cross between Golden Delicious and Kidds Orange Red. Gala is an early- to mid-season bloomer, with a golden yellow skin and red striping. The yellow to cream-colored flesh is crisp, fine-grained, very sweet and aromatic. Gala apples ripen starting in mid-September through part of October. Gala is one of the most popular apple varieties in the United States � and for good reason!
