APPLE, BRAMLEY'S ORIGINAL (Malus domestica Bramley's Original)
Enlarge Picture Enlarge picture
 

The original tree was grown from a pip in the early 1800s in Nottingham by Mary Ann Brailsford and it was propagated by a local nurseryman in the 1850s, but by then the property where the tree was growing was owned by the local butcher, Mr. Bramley and he insisted on the tree bearing his name. It should really be Brailford's Seedling! Abundant apples with firm pale yellow flesh, acid, excellent cooker. Green with red stripes. Very vigorous. Propagated from the original Bramley tree, so has excellent quality.
M25 rootstock - if unpruned this will get to approx. 16-18ft (5-5.5m).

Season of Use: Nov.-Mar. Culinary (Suitable for Cooking)

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.
