There are more than 7,500 kinds of apples. The University of Maryland just invented two new ones for a warming world.
The two apple varieties that are being grown in the University of Maryland’s Western Maryland Research and Education Center have been named and patented as MD-TAP1 and MD-TAP2, and the research shows that they will be able to thrive throughout the country. Sunrise Magic. Crimson Gold. Autumn Glory. Even the names of apples put us in the seasonal spirit, thinking of cider and hay rides, deep-dish confections or a crunchy snap tucked under a gooey caramel coating.
That will change when a commercial nursery licenses and renames them something sweeter and snappier and starts selling the trees directly to growers. They don’t know precisely when consumers will find these new varieties in local grocery stores, but Walsh says the researchers’ own orchard will produce them for pick-your-owns and local Maryland farmers markets in September 2026.
It started with a simple cross, he said of the apples he’s growing in an orchard at the Western Maryland Research and Education Center in Keedysville, Md.“We were looking for a variety that ripened in hot weather and didn’t turn into mush. A lot of varieties are green one day and fall on the ground the next day. Jonagold, a wonderful northern variety, when you grow it down here — boom — it’s on the ground,” Walsh explained.
