An early variety of apple trees for eating from September. The handsome red flushed fruits are borne very abundantly and are crisp, sweet and very juicy with an excellent flavour. Suitable for planting in all areas, hardy and reliable. This variety continues to be planted on a small scale commercially, despite the fact that the fruits do not travel well. This is because the flavour is so very good that the fruits always find a market. Pollinate with Lord Lambourne, Idared, Sunrise etc.







We have in place very rigorous standards for the health,
providence and uniformity of all our fruiting plants & trees. Our Nursery and the stock we grow is
inspected and passported for health regularly by DEFRA experts [formerly the Ministry of Agriculture]
and we have in place our own stringent controls and inspection programmes to ensure our fruiting
bushes and trees are the best, most disease free stocks available and truly beyond compare.
We always propagate from certified stock where this exists and have the highest standards regarding providence
and grading. If only the very best will do – as it should – then you can rely on a Chris Bowers fruiting
plant to give the most exemplary results available. We firmly believe that only the very healthiest
stock can and does produce vastly superior results – and it shows.
