red apples

Scarlet orchard produce

Red apples are apples with predominantly red skin, as opposed to green or yellow varieties.

Common types include Red Delicious, Fuji, Gala, and Honeycrisp.

The phrase often appears in contexts distinguishing apple types: I prefer red apples to green ones.

Red apples are the default image in cultural representations—the fruit Snow White bites, the gift for a teacher.
