The Malus domestica โKatyโ, also known as Katja in its native Sweden, is a vibrant early-season dessert apple that brings a burst of colour and flavour to the late summer garden. Bred in 1947 from a cross between James Grieve and Worcester Pearmain, this variety is known for its striking bright red skin, juicy flesh, and refreshing sweet-sharp taste. Katy is reliable, easy to grow, and a perfect choice for both new and experienced gardeners who want a cheerful, productive tree.
