- A self-pollinating variety, ensuring a good yield without needing a pollination partner.
- Harvest your crop in mid-season, during September and October.
- Grafted onto an M26 rootstock which limits the tree's size, making it perfect for average gardens.
- Your tree will be 18-36 months old and professionally pruned before shipping to encourage a strong shape.

- Features: Heavy cropper, Self fertile
- Tasting Notes: A good balance of sharp & sweet with subtle strawberry hints.
- Uses: Eating
- Flowering Time: May
- Harvest Time: September, October
- Hardiness: Fully Hardy - Doesn't require any protection from frost.
- Pollination: Self-fertile but may produce better crops if a pollination partner is nearby. In most built-up areas, it is likely there will be a suitable tree close enough.
- Eventual Spread: 4m
- Planting Time: Can be planted year-round.
- Watering: Water in thoroughly when planting. For bare root trees, you won't need to water regularly going forward, only in dry spells when the leaves start to wilt. It is better to water heavily and less frequently than little and often.
- Feeding: No need to feed.
- Pruning: Some pruning should be done each winter to ensure your apple tree maintains a productive shape. This can improve yields and prevent disease.
