Haas, also listed with the alternate names Gros Pomier and Fall Queen, originated near St. Louis, Missouri. The source describes the tree as very strong and upright, and says it was among the hardiest of the old apple list, though still not sufficiently hardy farther north [S1].
The fruit is medium or larger, roundish oblate to conical, and somewhat angular. Its thick, tough skin becomes oily and is mostly covered with bright crimson marbling, splashes, and stripes [S1].
The flesh is snow white, sometimes red stained near the skin, juicy, subacid, and quince like in texture. Quality is rated only fair, with use listed as culinary and season as late fall [S1].
R. P. Speer of Cedar Falls, Iowa, reported Haas productive on sandy land. The apple was also noted as useful as a top grafting stock for Jonathan where it was hardy enough [S1].
