Storage

Given in thirds of a month (early / mid / late) for the northern hemisphere in a temperate climate; altitude and season shift them.

Description

Fruit

Rather small, firm and aromatic fruit with good flavour (rated 2).

Growth

Moderately vigorous, steeply upright when young, later weeping under the weight of fruit like a willow.

Yield

Crops relatively well, but biennially, alternating between good and poor years.

Notes

Robust against the main fruit diseases. Recommended for the home garden and especially for apple allergy sufferers; stores up to 5 months.

Care

Counter biennial bearing through pruning and fruit thinning; regularly cut back overhanging fruit wood to younger shoots.
