'Geheimrat Dr. Oldenburg' is a German apple cultivar. It was created in 1897 at the Höheren Lehranstalt für Obstbau of Geisenheim in the Rheingau, in Hesse in central Germany.[1] It may also be known as 'Geheimrat Doktor Oldenburg', 'Geheimrat Oldenburg', or simply 'Oldenburg'. It is a quite different apple from the older Russian cultivar 'Duchess of Oldenburg', also sometimes known simply as 'Oldenburg'.
History[edit]
The cultivar was created in 1897 at the Höheren Lehranstalt für Obstbau of Geisenheim in the Rheingau, in Hesse in central Germany. It is documented as a hybrid of 'Minister von Hammerstein' and 'Baumanns Renette';[1][2] A single-nucleotide polymorphism study has found it be a hybrid of 'Alexander' and 'Ananas Reinette'.[3]: 11
