The Goldush Apple Tree (Malus Domestica 'Gold Rush') Is a deciduous fruiting late-maturing yellow apple tree. Derived from Golden Delicious as the seed parent, with crosses from several other research varieties including Winesap, Melrose, Rome Beauty and Malus floribunda. An attractive smooth-skinned modern dessert apple, specifically developed for scab-resistance. The fruit is characterized by a complex, rich spicy flavor with a high degree of acidity and sweetness. Acidity moderates in cold storage, resulting in exceptional overall quality after 2 to 3 months.

Excellent fruit quality and long storage ability combined with field immunity to apple scab incited by Venturia inaequalis (Cke.) Wint. 

Makes a good garden apple variety. Keeps well, yields heavy crops, good disease-resistance, winter-hardy, anyone can grow Goldrush. Its one drawback is susceptibility to Cedar Apple Rust
