Abstract
A new and distinct variety of Malus domestica named ‘Seaton99’ characterized by a bright pink colour with faint underline stripe fully filling in to block colour; more intensively visually apparent bright pink tones than any comparable early maturing apple varieties; foreground colour over 75% of fruit surface; mild cheddar background colour; random ‘flecking’ exhibited to varying modest degrees in approximately 30% of fruits; early maturation; distinctive strong flavours and after-tastes; consistent and stable repeat cropping returning identical characteristics over an extended trial period; and retention and enhancement of bright colouration in long storage events.
