Red Aport is a Russian apple that Hansen describes as an Alexander or Aport type. The fruit is large and heavy, irregular, roundish, and oblate conical. Its skin is greenish yellow, mostly shaded dark red, and faintly splashed with carmine [S1].
The source gives Russia as its origin. It does not name a breeder, nursery, release year, or direct parentage [S1]. Its link to Alexander and Aport is a type comparison, not a documented pedigree [S1].
The fruit has a small closed core, conical tube, and firm white flesh. Hansen describes it as juicy, pleasantly subacid, and good in quality [S1]. A later classification entry also groups Red Aport with Alexander and Aport. It describes the flesh as white or yellowish white, with ovate cells [S1].
Its season is September to October [S1]. The packet gives no storage notes beyond that season range.
The supplied evidence gives no tree habit, productivity, disease, or management notes. It also does not state hardiness directly. Hansen included it in a northwestern apple bulletin, so it belongs to a northern trial and descriptive context. No zone rating or winter survival statement is provided [S1].
Red Aport belongs in the apple cultivar record under Malus. The source treats it as a Russian introduction associated with the Aport or Alexander type. The supplied packet documents no descendants, siblings, or later breeding use [S1].
