Description
Fruit
Strongly coloured dessert apple, mildly sweet-sour; rather unexciting in taste with little spice and acidity (rated 3+).
Growth
Strong to very strong growth; crown stiffly upright and narrow. Scaffold branches long, steep and sparsely branched, best tied down. Fruiting on one-year spurs and terminally bearing long shoots. Wind-firm.
Yield
Avoid excessive fruit loads.
Notes
Bred variety from the 1970s; long storable (about 6 months). Limited cultivation suitability.
Care
Reduce the vigorous growth by pruning; summer-prune for good light penetration; use long cutbacks and tie scaffold branches down.
