What does a poor apple look like (Figure)
Apple is a common fruit, and there are many varieties of apples, many of which are named after the place of origin, such as Yantai Apple, Luochuan Apple and Aksu Apple in Xinjiang, all of which are very famous.
But there are some apples in China that many people have never heard of, such as Hanfu Apple. So where do Hanfu apples come from? Let's get to know each other.
Where do Hanfu apples come from?
Hanfu apple is a super cold-resistant Fuji apple variety bred in China, and it is the most cold-resistant Fuji apple variety at present. Its female parent is Dongguang Apple and its male parent is Fuji Apple. After hybridization, a "poor and rich apple" was bred.
Hanfu apple is a very cold-resistant variety. Hanfu apple can overwinter at-30℃, which is an apple variety specially selected for cold regions.
Hanfu apples are mainly produced in northern China, among which Liaoning is the most planted area, such as Liaozhong District, Shenyang, xinmin city and so on.
Why cultivate apples for the poor and the rich?
Hanfu apples are mainly influenced by Japanese red Fuji apples. After the Japanese Red Fuji apple was introduced to Yantai, it became the representative of "high quality apple" because of its large size, beautiful appearance, hard and crisp flesh, storage resistance, high sweetness and many kinds of juice.
Fuji apples are selected from Japan where the climate is warmer, and the selected Fuji apples are basically not cold-resistant.
It is difficult to plant red Fuji in the low temperature area of Northeast China, so in order to cultivate red Fuji apples in the apple producing area of Northeast China, the cold-resistant Hanfu apples were selected.
Difference between Hanfu Apple and Fuji Apple
Hanfu apple is a hybrid of Fuji apple and Dongguang apple, which has the characteristics of both Fuji apple and Dongguang apple.
However, because the quality of red Fuji apples in Fuji apple series is very high, it is difficult to compare the rich and poor apples.
Among all the apples, there is only one apple that can be deified at present, and that is the red Fuji apple among Fuji apples.
Red Fuji apple is a kind of thick red bud variety selected from Japanese Fuji apple 1939.
Red Fuji apple has the characteristics of easy production, storage resistance, sweet taste and high value. It is an excellent apple variety and the most famous apple in the world. At present, most of the main apple producing areas in China are planting red Fuji apples.

Which is better, Hanfu Apple or Fuji Apple?
Hanfu apple tastes crisp and sweet. Because it grows in the north, there is much less rain and long light time, so it is sweet and sour.
There are many red Fuji apples, which are big and have a lot of water. They are thirsty and sweet. So I think red Fuji apples are more delicious.
