Description

Fruit

Aromatic, juicy early apple (rated 1-2), in some years with a light strawberry note. Considered the most aromatic of the very early varieties. In wet years scab makes fruit spotted and smaller.

Growth

Medium-vigour tree with relatively good vitality despite scab susceptibility.

Yield

No specific data on yield behaviour.

Notes

Suitable for the home garden; choose a well-ventilated site. Only short storage (about 3 weeks).

Care

Pick the fruit in several successive passes.
