Cortland has been an important variety since its release in 1915, . It is a sweet apple with crisp, juicy flesh. Cortland is great for applesauce or drying as the flesh is slow to brown. Cortland crops well annually, and makes a good pollinator for others. The fruit keeps until Christmas under home storage conditions.
