Excellent modern variety, deep red fruit with pink flesh, sweet & very juicy. Easy to grow, a heavy & reliable cropper. Keeps well.
Planting distance: 4m (13ft)
Pollination: Group 3. Each variety has ideal pollinators. These groups are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6 according to flowering time. Best results will be obtained if this variety is planted near another apple of the same group or one group either side (so an ideal pollinator for a group 3 variety is one in group 2, 3 or 4). In normal suburban planting, however, apples are usually planted in sufficient numbers to give adequate pollination.
Rootstocks:
