Zestar!® Apple (Malus domestica 'Zestar!') is an early-season apple variety known for its crisp texture, sweet-tart flavor, and excellent storage life. Developed by the University of Minnesota, it thrives in colder climates and ripens in late summer, offering high yields of medium-sized, bright red apples with a slight yellow blush. The fruit has a unique balance of sweetness and acidity, making it ideal for fresh eating, baking, and cider production. Zestar!® grows best in full sun with well-drained soil and requires a pollinator for optimal fruit set. Its cold-hardiness, disease resistance, and superior fruit quality make it an excellent choice for commercial orchards and retail growers.
