Description
Dates back to earlier than 1870. Its origin is Galloway in Scotland. Very attractive blossom followed by large yellow apples with freckled russet all over. Rich flavour when cooked, but the best flavour is early in the season. It then starts to lose some flavour when cooked, but is then suitable for dessert, when it has a sharp but full flavour. Good disease resistance. Pick September or October. The blossom attracts bees, and later any fallen fruit is eagerly consumed by thrushes and other similar birds. Bullfinches are, unfortunately, partial to the buds.
