Abstract

‘PremA153’ is a new and distinct apple tree (Malas domestics Mill.) notable for its attractive blush yellow color and excellent flavor and texture.

Description

Genus and Species:
Malus domestica Mill.
Variety denomination:
‘PremA153’.
BACKGROUND AND SUMMARY OF THE VARIETY
The new variety of apple tree ‘PremA153’ was created in the course of a planned breeding program carried out in Hawkes Bay, New Zealand. ‘PremA153’ originated as a result of a controlled cross of ‘Tenroy Gala’ (U.S. Plant Pat. No. 4,121), the seed parent, and ‘Braebum’ (not patented), the pollen parent. ‘PremA153’ was selected as a single plant from among a population of seedlings derived from the parents, and was selected for its attractive blush yellow fruit and its excellent flavor and texture. Asexual propagation by budding was first carried out in Havelock North, New Zealand. The variety has since been observed over a number of asexually propagated generations, and has been found to remain true to type.
