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

Culinary apple with a plainer flavour (rated 4+).

Tree is vigorous and very robust against diseases.

Bears regularly and reliably. Only moderately storable (about 2-3 months).

Very old, typical orchard variety. In some years the fruit is prone to internal browning when stored too long, so avoid over-storing.
