Zolotareff is a Russian apple cultivar recorded in N. E. Hansen's 1902 bulletin A Study of Northwestern Apples. Hansen lists it as No. 275 in the Transparent Group, within the broader context of Malus domestica apple cultivars. [S1]
The source gives no breeder, parentage, release date, or introduction path. Its origin is listed only as Russia. [S1]
The fruit is described as large to very large and handsomely colored. Hansen says it closely resembles Vasilis Largest. [S1] A later diagnostic list in the same bulletin again records Zolotareff as having very large fruit. A striped apple classification line also groups it with Vasilis Largest as "very large" and "handsome." [S1]
The available extracted material gives no flesh description, flavor note, culinary use, storage behavior, tree habit, productivity, or disease observation. The page context places Zolotareff near Yellow Transparent and other Russian apple entries, but this does not show a direct relationship or parentage. [S1]
No hardiness zone is stated. Its inclusion in a South Dakota Agricultural Experiment Station bulletin on northwestern apples gives it northern prairie evaluation context, but the packet gives no survival claim or planting recommendation for Zolotareff. [S1]
The main uncertainty is textual completeness. One captured entry is fragmentary, and the scan/OCR quality is poor. The stable facts are its Russian origin, register number 275, Transparent Group placement, large to very large fruit, handsome coloring, and close comparison to Vasilis Largest. [S1]
