Apple cultivars I saw for sale at Kaufland in Brno, Czechia:
Granny Smith
Golden Delicious
Jonagold
Red Delicious
Red Prince
Braeburn
Cripps Pink ("Pink Lady")
Gala
"Cosmic Crisp"
Eva (I think...I might be misremembering this one).
Didn't see any Czech cultivars per se. #FruitToot #Agrobiodiversity #Czechia
@kmccoy It's good in terms of number, but I think the sad thing is that none of the local Czech varieties is there. It's very corporate.
I'd have to take more risks buying unknown (to me) Czech cultivars, but it would be a more authentic experience of regionality.
This alludes to modern Czech apple breeding, but I'm also speaking of whatever heritage cultivars may exist.
