Description
- A high-quality, traditional English, dessert apple.
- Creamy-white flesh with a crisp, juicy flavour.
- Uniformly round-shaped, red-blush fruit.
- Easy to grow in a garden and with good crops!
- Introduced in 1907, a cross between ‘James Grieve’ and ‘Worcester Pearmain’, with a hint of ‘Cox’ in its lineage.
- RHS Award of Garden Merit winner.
- Our trees are professionally pruned before dispatching. This formative pruning can involve cutting the main leader, if the expert tree growers decide this will produce a better shaped tree. This can stop the tree becoming “leggy”, and promote stronger, bushier growth.MORE
