- Planting & Care
- An award-winning apple variety with excellent taste, perfect for both cooking and eating fresh.
- Features attractive green skin with red streaks and juicy, cream-coloured flesh.

- Highly frost-resistant pink blossoms in May protect your future crop from late cold snaps.
- A reliable and heavy cropper, recognised with the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
- Its compact size makes it ideal for small to medium gardens and can even be grown in a container on a patio.
- Available on different rootstocks to control the final size: Cordon (H2m x W1m), M26 (H3m x W3m), and MM106 (H4m x W4m).
- Supplied in an EcoPot™, which uses 70% less plastic, is fully recyclable, and promotes healthier root growth.
- Your tree will be 18-36 months old and professionally pruned before dispatch to encourage a strong, bushy shape.
