摘要

By any measure, EverCrisp has been a successful apple for the Midwest Apple Improvement Association. Since its official release several years ago, hundreds of thousands of EverCrisp trees have been planted in the Midwest and beyond, and it's quickly turned into a top-selling variety for grower-members.So, does the Ohio-based breeding group have another EverCrisp up its sleeve?MAIA has released five varieties so far, with more on the way. Besides EverCrisp, the group's first release, the variety getting the most attention from growers is MAIA-L, which is being marketed as Ludacrisp. Nurseriessold 55,000 trees for 2020, and 100,000 trees have been budded for 2021. The largest plantings so far are in Ohio, where Ludacrisp originated, but the new plantings will expand the variety to other states. Many of the orders came from farm market and pick-your-own growers, said MAIA President Bill Dodd.
