Malus domestica ‘Gala’
Apple
Malus domestica ‘Gala’ bears yellow-skinned apples with a red flush, and its juicy, creamy flesh boasts a rich flavor. The fruit becomes ripe from late summer to early autumn, while the pink buds unfurl into white flowers during spring. Although partially self-fertile, optimal fruit production requires a cultivar such as Malus domestica ‘Fuji’, Malus domestica ‘Golden Delicious’, or Malus domestica ‘Red Delicious’ that has a comparable bloom period. Malus domestica is deciduous and native to Afghanistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Uzbekistan, and China. Learn more about Malus domestica. Malus domestica ‘Gala’ was developed in the early 1900s by James Hutton Kidd in Greytown, New Zealand. The seedlings he developed were transferred to the New Zealand Department of Scientific and Industrial Research, who released Malus domestica ‘Gala’.
