Abstract

A new and distinct Malus domestica Mill. apple tree variety named ‘RENOIRCIV’ particularly characterized by moderately vigorous tree with good habit and good productivity. Resistant to scab. The tree produces well on two-year-old branches, is self-thinning and naturally keeps to one or two apples per cluster. The shape of fruit is conical-obloid, slightly flattened. Yellowish-green ground color with russeting over 50-60% of the surface; fruit growing in direct sunlight may take on a light red hue on the exposed part. The flavor is excellent with a very intense aroma similar to ‘Reinette blanche du Canada’, but sweeter. The fruit is good to eat fresh, even directly after harvest. The flesh is yellow, firm and juicy. May be stored until April.
