History and description of KNSEE 39

A fantastic tasting mid season dessert apple, very juicy and full of cox like flavour. From an openly pollinated Kidd's Orange Red Seed, raised in 2015, first fruited in 2022. Named after my funny friend called Chris. Noted by Dr Joan Morgan as being "good, juicy and having sweet-sharp undernotes."
