Chivers Delight, a visually appealing apple, is celebrated for its outstanding storage capacity, resembling the Braeburn in taste and texture. With a golden, crisp exterior and a slight waxy finish, this apple maintains freshness well into January under cool, dry storage conditions. Its juicy flesh offers a delightful blend of sweetness with a distinct honey flavor, providing a satisfyingly sweet and crisp experience. During spring, the tree showcases attractive pinkish-white blossoms and vibrant green leaves, enhancing its aesthetic appeal. Raised by Stephen Chivers of John Chivers Farms Ltd in Histon, Cambridgeshire, England, between 1920 and 1936, Chivers Delight was officially introduced in 1966, with its parentage speculated to have a potential relation to the Cox variety.
Noteworthy for its extended storage, Chivers Delight is recommended for various regions, embodying adaptability and aesthetic qualities suitable for both orchards and gardens. To maximize pollination and fruit production, it benefits from compatible partners such as Annie Elizabeth, Charles Ross, Discovery, Ellison's Orange, Gala, Kidd's Orange Red, Laxton's Superb, and Lord Derby. In summary, Chivers Delight distinguishes itself through impressive storage capabilities, delicious flavor, visual appeal, and adaptability to diverse growing environments, making it a versatile and desirable choice for apple enthusiasts.
May be susceptible to aphids, including woolly aphid and rosy apple aphid, fruit tree red spider mite, codling moth and other caterpillars
Apples are one of the hardiest and easiest fruit trees to grow, but even so, certain diseases, insects, birds and weather conditions can damage the trees, blossom or fruit. So check apple trees regularly and take prompt action if necessary.
