- Highlights
- Variety Specifications
- Planting & Care
- A versatile and delicious apple, perfect for both cooking and eating fresh straight from the tree.
- Features attractive green skin with red streaks and exceptionally juicy, cream-coloured flesh.
- Harvest in early September for a sharp flavour ideal for cooking, or leave on the tree to sweeten for fresh eating later in the month.
- Beautiful pink blossoms are highly frost-resistant, protecting your future crop from late cold snaps.
- A reliable and heavy-cropping variety, recognised with the RHS Award of Garden Merit.
- Its compact size makes it an excellent choice for small to medium gardens, patios, and even container growing.
- Partially self-fertile (Pollination Group 3). While it can produce fruit on its own, planting with a pollination partner from group 2, 3, or 4 will improve your crop size.
- Supplied in EcoPots™, which use 70% less plastic, are fully recyclable, and promote healthier root growth.
- Your tree will arrive professionally pruned to encourage a strong, bushy shape and robust growth.

- Planting Time: Can be planted year-round.
- Watering: Water thoroughly when planting. Bare root trees only need watering during dry spells. Water heavily but infrequently to encourage deep root growth.
