Nevertheless the colour is very intensive. Gala ‘fendeca‘(s) remains a typical Gala due to very pronounced lenticels and presence of the Gala typical silverfilm. The percentage of overcolour (colour development) is very high also in areas with difficult of colouring and inside the tree. The colour comes very early (mid of July). Gala ‘fendeca‘(s) differs for its excellent stability. We don’t note reversion, which is normally present on Gala. Colouring of fruits is uniform and stable.
