Black diamond apples are not only real apples with their own unique color, texture, and taste, but they are also the gems of health.

'Black Diamond Apple' is a rare variety of apple

In the high mountains of Tibet, one can occasionally spot wild apple trees that may not be visually appealing. At present, the apple trees have sparse, medium-sized fruits, and the color is still purple-black. It even resembles the poison apple from the fairy tale Snow White.

Black diamond apples have a unique deep purple color with a diamond-like luster, as if covered with a layer of mysterious iridescent wax. This distinctive appearance is the reason behind the name 'black diamond.

The area chosen for planting this black diamond apple is Linzhi City, Tibet. The average altitude of this place is 3,100 meters, the temperature difference between day and night is quite large, and the sunlight contains a lot of ultraviolet rays.

These special geographical features make Linzhi City a perfect natural environment for growing black diamond apples. Although black apple seeds have been planted in many places, they have not achieved the same effect as the "original taste" of Tibet.
