Planting & Care

Savour the unique, pear-like flavour of this 18th-century English heritage apple.
Wonderfully versatile – perfect for eating fresh, cooking, juicing, or cider making.
Harvest in October and enjoy your crop for over three months.
Naturally resistant to common pests and diseases for easier care.
An RHS Award of Garden Merit winner that's a magnet for pollinators.
Grown on M26 rootstock, reaching a compact size of 3x3m, ideal for average gardens.
Requires a nearby pollination partner from Group 3, 4, or 5.
Expertly pruned before dispatch to encourage a strong, healthy shape.

Species: Apple
Features: Heritage
Flavour: Aromatic apple with a hint of pear
Flowering: March - May
Harvest: September - November
Habit: Bushy
Position: Full sun to partial shade
Hardiness: Fully Hardy
Soil: Any fertile, well-drained soil
Pest & Disease: Good resistance to scab and mildew
Pollination: Not self-fertile. Pollination Group 4

Planting Time: November to April
Planting: Plant trees 3m apart. Prefers fertile, well-drained soil. If you have clay soil, improve drainage by mixing in horticultural grit or perlite when planting.
Watering: Water in thoroughly when planting. For container-grown trees, water every other day for the first few months, then reduce to twice a week until autumn. Once established, water only during dry spells.
Pruning: Prune each winter to maintain a productive shape, improve yield, and prevent disease.
Feeding: No feeding is required as the tree will get all the nutrients it needs from the soil.
Pollination: Requires a pollination partner to produce fruit. This needs to be another apple tree from the same pollination group or an adjacent one (e.g. Group 3, 4, or 5). In most built-up areas, a suitable tree is likely to be close enough.
