Ginger Gold was discovered as a chance seedling in a Virginia Winesap orchard in 1980. Its parentage is unknown. The medium to large apples begin pale green and mature to soft yellow, with a smooth slightly waxy skin.
The fruit resembles Golden Delicious but ripens much earlier and has a spicier flavour. At the nursery it is expected from late August into early September.

Pollination
Apples need pollen from a different apple or crabapple to set fruit. A second variety in your yard will do it, and so will a neighbour's apple or fruiting crabapple. Double flowered ornamental crabapples make no pollen and do not count.
