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. Always enjoyed at our Apple day events during October. Suitable for growing in most parts of the UK. This variety has some self fertility which is very uncommon in apples, but will always do better with other varieties around. Rootstock: MM106, M26.

A relatively modern variety that has become important commercially with various clones. Apples are large sweet with a nice rich flavour. A triploid variety so though accepting pollen from other varieties will not provide any. A strong grower so offered on two dwarfing rootstocks! The picture was taken late August – the apples will flush more orange-red. Rootstock: M26

An old Essex variety dating back to the 1700s. Sweet yet acid taste. Gains a spicy flavour in hot dry summers. Apples appear flattened at either end and have quite distinct broad ribs from top to bottom. A russet with yellow-green skin and some brown flushing. Though the trees are of moderate vigour they are only small trees on the nursery.
