Wiki Draft

Ralls Genet is an apple cultivar also listed under the names Janet, Neverfail, and Jeniton. A South Dakota source gives its origin as Amherst County, Virginia, on the farm of Caleb Rall [S1].

The tree is described as vigorous, spreading, and very productive. It is noted for putting out leaves and blossoms later than many other varieties, which helped it escape late frosts [S1].

The fruit is described as medium or larger, oblate, conic, and regular. The same source places Ralls Genet in a midwinter to spring season section and records ovate cells [S1].

Ralls Genet also appears in an apple recommendation list for District 12 [S1].
