I am sure some of you are aware of all the new apple Cultivars/Varieties that the USDA/ARS has brought back from Central Asia in recent years. Most are wild apples but some are cultivated apples from that region of the world. If you are interested take a look at USDA/ARS at Geneva, New York's list of apple cultivars. Most of the new varieties are listed under Country as - Former Soviet Union. Scroll down to Malus domestica to see these. Here is the link:
