New apple is red to core
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.A new variety of apple tree whose fruit is red to the core went on sale yesterday.
The Redlove was made by cross-pollinating varieties such as Royal Gala and Braeburn with a secret variety that has no taste but has pink flesh. The apples have a berry nuance, are rich in antioxidants and took nursery owner Markus Kobert 20 years to create at his fruit farm in Switzerland.
Devon-based company Suttons, which has exclusive rights to sell the saplings at £24.95 each in Britain, already has 1,500 orders. The fruit should hit UK supermarket shelves in about five years.
