| has gloss | eng: The Red Delicious is a clone of apple cultigen, now comprising more than 50 cultivars, that was recognized in Wellsburg, Iowa, United States, in 1880. As new cultivars with improved color and earlier harvestability have replaced the original cultivar in commercial orchards, the taste and texture of the harvested commodity have deteriorated, and many customers have begun to reject the Red Delicious at the food market. to find an apple to replace the Ben Davis apple. The winner was a red and yellow striped apple sent by Jesse Hiatt, a farmer in Peru, Iowa, who called it "Hawkeye". Stark Nurseries bought the rights from Hiatt, renamed the variety "Stark Delicious", and began propagating it. An apple tree, later named the Golden Delicious was also marketed by Stark Nurseries, after it was purchased from a farmer in Clay County, West Virginia, in 1914, and the Delicious became the Red Delicious as a retronym. |

La légende dit quun semis particulièrement robuste fut trouvé par un certain Jesse Hiatt en 1868, un agriculteur vivant près de Peru (Iowa), aux É.-U.. Hiatt tenta déliminer ce plant, mais il repoussait chaque année, et finalement Hiatt le laissa pousser, jusquà ce quil donne des fruits qu'il exposa au concours de Louisiana dans le Missouri. Il gagna le premier prix. Toutes les pommes "Red Delicious" sont des descendantes de cet arbre. |
