Planting & Care

Enjoy delicious apples with an excellent taste, perfect for both cooking and eating fresh from the tree.
An easy-to-grow James Grieve variety, featuring attractive green skin with red streaks and juicy, cream-coloured flesh.
Versatile harvesting in September: pick early for a sharp apple that holds its shape when cooked, or leave on the tree to sweeten for fresh eating.
Beautiful pink blossoms are highly frost-resistant, protecting your future crop from late cold snaps.
A reliable and heavy-cropping tree, recognised with the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
Its compact nature makes it ideal for small to medium gardens, and it can even be grown in a container on a patio.
Partially self-fertile, but planting with a pollination partner from group 2, 3, or 4 will increase your yield.
Available on a range of rootstocks to control the final size, from a 2m cordon to a 4m tree.
Arrives professionally pruned to encourage a strong, bushy shape and robust growth.
Supplied in an EcoPot™, which uses 70% less plastic and is fully recyclable.

Planting: Can be planted year-round. This tree will grow in most well-drained soils. Choose a position in full sun.
Watering: Water in thoroughly when planting. For the first few months, water every other day, reducing to twice a week until autumn. Once established (from the second year), water only during dry spells. It is better to water heavily and less frequently to encourage deep root growth.
Pollination: This tree is in Pollination Group 3 and is not self-fertile. It requires a pollination partner from groups 2, 3, or 4 to produce fruit. In most built-up areas, a suitable pollinator is likely to be nearby.
Pruning: Prune each winter to maintain a productive shape, improve yields, and prevent disease.
Harvesting: Expect your first apples in the year after planting, with substantial crops from the third or fourth year. For a sharper flavour ideal for cooking, harvest in early September. For a sweeter taste, allow the fruit to ripen on the tree until later in the month.
Feeding: No feeding is required.
