SURABAYA 99 Pameran Filateli Nasional

Manalagi Apple ( Malus sylvestris ) or in Indonesia known as Malang Apple or Stone Apple , is a species of wild apple fruit from the genus Malus . Its scientific name means " Forest Apple " because it often grows wild in forests with certain altitudes or climates and the tree has fairly sharp thorns .

Manalagi apples are one of the mainstays of plantations in Malang Raya , East Java . These apples were brought by the Dutch from Australia and Central Asia in the 1930s and apple plantations have developed more rapidly in the highlands of East Java, especially Malang Raya, because the climate is cooler and drier than the average warm and humid climate of Indonesia.
