Insights
Everything about this apple is pink- from the beautiful blossom to the juice it creates! Slices keep their shape and colour when cooked (making a wonderful tarte tatin) and it featured in the dessert finals of the BBC cookery programme 'Great British Menu' (series 14) in May 2019.

Care
- Rootstock indicates this is semi-dwarf size – ideal for small to medium gardens.

- As this is not self-fertile, it will require a pollinator nearby (if you are planting in an urban area, you may not need to plant a partner)
- Best grown in a sheltered, sunny spot where the blossom can attract pollinators and the fruit can ripen in the sun. Prune annually to achieve the optimum crop.
- For an increased yield, plant with other apples.
