Westfield Seek-no-Further
Malus domestica Borkh. Borkh.
Dessert
Westfield Seek-No-Further is an old dessert apple of medium size with creamy-yellow skin striped with dull red and sometimes russeted. It has a pleasant, rich, mild subacid flavor and stores well from late fall through early winter. The variety is hardy and long-lived, though its commercial demand is limited due to its modest appearance and restriction to dessert use.
