Scotch Bridget
£10.00
A very useful dual purpose apple that often thrives in less than ideal conditions. Quite large round conical red flushed apples that are often lop sided with obvious unequal ribbing which can make for odd shaped fruit. Do not let this put you off because early on when sharp the apples can be cooked, later on becoming sweeter and enjoyable as a dessert. (1851, Scotland)
