Also known as ‘Red Pippin’, skin much flushed bright red. Good cropping. Fruit sweet and juicy with balancing acidity similar to Cox which is one of its parents.

Pitmaston Pineapple
£16.50Availability: In stockOut of stock
A quite different and distinctive apple. Small golden yellow apples, oblong conical in shape covered with a fine russet. Sweet yet sharp. Honeyed flavour and nicely scented, but any pineapple flavour is difficult to distinguish. A neglected variety because of the apples small size, but this is a feature in itself. A variety well worth growing. A fruiting tree in the autumn is an impressive sight with the golden apples contrasting with the yet to fall leaves. Now sold out on M26 & MM106
