A Cornish heritage apple variety, very vigorous and sturdy. It can produce huge crops of middle size yellow fruit with a slight pink flush, harvest late August to September, in and average growing season. Genetically similar, but superior to “The Rattler”. Within the harvesting window they will start off bitter and as the sugar levels rise, they will grow sweet on the palette. Much enjoyed when sampled on tours of the Forest Garden
