The bi-colored Ambrosia apple is a “mid-season” apple. This means that in the northern hemisphere Ambrosia apples ripen in late September or early October depending on the region in which they are grown. They require cool nights and warm sunny days to develop their almost luminous appearance, but it is not their coloring that determines when they are picked. Starch tests are conducted on the apples to ensure that they have reached the peak of maturity. This scientific approach to harvesting ensures that all Ambrosia apples are sweet and crunchy, and blemish free. Stored under controlled atmospheric conditions, Ambrosia apples are available for six months or more after harvest.
