History & Discovery

A handsome and fine flavoured mid-season dessert apple. Grown from a chance seedling by Mrs Sylvia Farthing of Amlwch.

Fruit

This firm fleshed apple can be used from early October to Christmas.

Rootstock & Eventual Tree Size

All fruit trees are grafted onto rootstocks. The rootstocks determine eventual tree size.
Bigger trees are more robust & produce more fruit, but take up more space.
Always choose a bigger rootstock if you need extra anchorage or your soil is poor (very wet, dry or rocky). Small trees cannot compete with grass and weeds.

If you want your fruit tree to remain smaller than its eventual tree size, simply prune back in the summer.
