    The same as Cox but benefits from being self fertile, though will crop even better if there are other apple varieties in the vicinity. Can crop better than its parent, Cox’s Orange Pippin, when pollination conditions are less favourable. (Bristol, 1975)

    Bloody Ploughman
    £17.50

    Availability: In stockOut of stock

    An interesting apple that is conical in shape with distinct ribbing. Its blood red skin is a little tough, beneath it the sweet tasting flesh is heavily pink tinged.

    Name also has a story behind it – apparently a ploughman was caught by a gamekeeper stealing apples on a Scottish estate and shot. His wife had the apples but threw them on a rubbish tip and one of the apples pips arose to be this variety! (central Scotland, 1883)
