Introduced by the Pennsylvania State University, Nittany is a York Imperial type apple possessing outstanding processing characteristics.

Flesh oxidizes very slowly and imparts a highly desirable yellow color to processed products. Nittany needs to be aggressively thinned to avoid biennial bearing. Characteristics
