About Apple Variety Identifier

An old apple tree came with your house, or you picked up an unlabeled bag at an orchard stand, and now you want to know what apple variety it is. Our free apple variety identifier is a good first step: it confirms from a photo whether the tree or fruit is the cultivated apple, Malus domestica, or a crabapple or related species. It does not name cultivars such as Honeycrisp or Gala, so the page below shows which features to compare yourself.

How It Works

Photograph the fruit whole and cut in half across the middle to show flesh color and the seed star, and add a shot of a leafy branch if you have access to the tree. Use natural light so skin color and streaking look true. The result gives the Genus species name with a copy button and a Wikipedia link.

Key Benefits

  • Confirms whether a tree is the cultivated apple or a crabapple, which changes how the fruit is used
  • Separates apples from close relatives like pear, quince and hawthorn
  • Gives a reliable species name before you compare skin color, russeting and shape with variety guides
  • Helps with heritage or seedling trees found on old farms and allotments
  • Free to use online with no sign-up

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about apple variety identifier

The identifier will tell you whether the photo shows Malus domestica, a crabapple such as Malus sylvestris, or another species, but not the named variety. To narrow down the cultivar, compare skin color, streaks, russet, shape, flesh texture and ripening date with a regional apple variety database or ask a local orchard.

Pomologists look at many features together: fruit shape, the depth of the stalk cavity and eye basin, skin color and pattern, flesh color, flavor and when the fruit ripens. Several samples from the same tree are usually needed.

Crabapples typically have fruit under about 2 inches (5 cm) across, while cultivated apples are larger. Many crabapples are grown for flowers, though their fruit can still be used for jelly.

Yes, some universities and orchard projects offer DNA fingerprinting for apple trees, matching samples against collections of known cultivars. It is useful for old trees where visual identification is uncertain.
