Apple tree -- Schneica

Abstract

`Schneica` is a sport of `Jonagold` having a deeper overcolor intensity and flatter fruit shape, as well as a deeper eye than that of the fruit of the parent. Fruit is less long, lighter and less extensive in coloration, and later to color than that of `Jonagored` which is a solid red, earlier to color and more acid tasting apple.

I claim: 
     
       1. A new and distinct variety of apple tree named Schneica as described and illustrated, and particularly characterized by its relatively deep overcolor intensity.
