McIntosh X Golden Delicious, Fruit is large, oblong to conical with yellow skin flushed and streaked with carmine and reddish-orange. Eating quality excellent, core smaller than McIntosh. The greenish-white flesh is soft, tender and very sweet. Tree vigorous, upright, spreading. Late ripening Spencer is a high-quality dessert apple that has not received the attention that it deserves. Ripens in September and is a good keeper.
