Green apples, as their name suggests, have an even, bright green skin, sometimes greenish-yellow. Fruits with a red blush may have been grown in a cooler climate. The skin is tough with grey or white lenticels. Green apples are medium in size (approximately 2 ¼ inches across) and round-conical in shape, with some ribbing. The Green apple’s white flesh is hard, crispy, and juicy. The flavor of Green apples is extremely acidic, sometimes to the point of not having other taste, but generally refreshing. Green apples grown in South Africa can be sweeter than those fruits grown in other parts of the world.
