Malus domestica 'Belle de Boskoop' is a cultivar of apple tree that is believed to have originated in the Netherlands in the late 19th century. It is also known as 'Beauty of Boskoop' or simply 'Boskoop'.
The fruit produced by this apple tree is large and somewhat flattened, with a green-yellow skin that is often russeted or brownish. The flesh is firm, juicy, and slightly tart, with a distinct aroma and flavor that is highly regarded by apple enthusiasts.
'Belle de Boskoop' is a late-ripening variety, typically harvested in October and November in the northern hemisphere. It is known for its excellent storage qualities and can be kept for several months in a cool, dry place.
This apple cultivar is considered to be a triploid, meaning it requires two other compatible apple trees for cross-pollination in order to produce fruit. It is a popular variety for commercial and home orchards alike, and is grown in many parts of the world, including Europe and North America.

About Us
During this time, we have developed a large stock of trees, mature evergreen shrubs, conifers, Japanese maples, cedars and olives. What sets us apart from a generic garden center is solid unwavering focus on trees and some bigger shrubs. You will find thousands of trees, hundreds of varieties and lots of experts who are working on the nursery and more than willing to help you to choose a plant for you.
What you will not find is hot tubs, garden furniture and plastic garden gnomes. In a nutshell, trees is what we know and trees is what we do, and only trees (and some shrubs to go with the trees).
