Hawley apple

Genus Malus
Species M. domestica
Cultivar 'Hawley'
Origin New York, about 1750[1]

'Hawley' is a large yellow apple cultivar that is used for eating fresh.[1] Although the fruit are delicious, the tree is not very productive, and the fruit are often blemished or rot at the core.[1] It is therefore good as a home orchard tree, but not commercially profitable.[1] The 'Hawthornden' apple has also been incorrectly known as 'Hawley'.[2]
