Believed to be a 13th century variety found on Bardsey Island in Wales in 1998. The variety has now been propagated from this unique tree. The apples are boldly striped pink over cream with a unique lemon scented flavour. A very disease resistant variety. A connoisseur's choice.
Apple cooks to a delicate light golden fluff and it needs no added sugar.
See the Bardsey Island Apple website for more details.

Crab apples such as Golden Hornet and John Downie also are good pollinators for all apples. In areas where there are many apple trees already growing it may not be necessary to plant an extra pollinator.
