    ADAMS PEARMAIN Herefordshire, England 1862 Oct 15 Nov Mar 14 Adams Pearmain is a an old-fashioned late dessert apple, one of the most popular varieties in Victorian England. It has an attractive 'pearmain' shape. This is a fairly dry apple - which is perhaps not regarded as a desirable attribute today. In spite of this it is actually a very enjoyable apple, with a rich aromatic flavour which in apple terms is usually described as Although it had 'shelf appeal' for the Victorian housewife, its autumnal colouring is probably too subdued to compete with the bright young things of the modern supermarket shelves. Perhaps this is part of its appeal; it recalls a bygone era where subtlety of flavour was appreciated - a lovely apple to savour in front of an open fire on a cold winter's day. Tree hardy. Does will in all soils, even clay. AERLIE RED FLESH (Hidden Rose, Mountain Rose) California 1930’s 19 20 20 Cook Oct 20 15 An amazing red fleshed apple, discovered in Aerlie, Oregon, which may be the best of all red fleshed varieties and indeed would be an outstandingly delicious apple no matter what color the flesh is. A choice seedling, Aerlie Red Flesh has a beautiful yellow skin with pale whitish dots, but it is inside that it excels. Deep rose red flesh, juicy, crisp, hard, sugary and richly flavored, ripening late (October) and keeping throughout the winter. The late Conrad Gemmer, an astute observer of apples with 500 varieties in his collection, rated Hidden Rose an outstanding variety of top quality.

  • 5. Organic Orchard
    MucknellAbbey Factsheet #5 Organic Orchard Following the vision laid out in the Land Use Strategy for Mucknell, we are working towards producing most of our food using organic methods, contributing to income generation by selling produce. In February 2011, we planted 31 fruit trees, to form an organic orchard. We sourced most of the trees from Walcot Organic Nursery, in the Vale of Evesham, and the Banns were a gift. We planted separate stands of apples, pears and plums. Crab apples are very good pollinators of all apples, so were planted on the edge of the stand of apples to encourage pollination. We planted Gladstone on a corner, so that its vigorous rootstock is less likely to interfere with the growth of the other trees. We planted other varieties according to their pollination groups, so that Bs are next to A-Cs, Cs are next to B-Ds, etc. We are planning to plant comfrey under the trees, cutting it and leaving it in situ to rot down around the trees as a natural fertiliser.

  • A Manual Key for the Identification of Apples Based on the Descriptions in Bultitude (1983)
    A MANUAL KEY FOR THE IDENTIFICATION OF APPLES BASED ON THE DESCRIPTIONS IN BULTITUDE (1983) Simon Clark of Northern Fruit Group and National Orchard Forum, with assistance from Quentin Cleal (NOF). This key is not definitive and is intended to enable the user to “home in” rapidly on likely varieties which should then be confirmed in one or more of the manuals that contain detailed descriptions e.g. Bunyard, Bultitude , Hogg or Sanders . The varieties in this key comprise Bultitude’s list together with some widely grown cultivars developed since Bultitude produced his book. The page numbers of Bultitude’s descriptions are included. The National Fruit Collection at Brogdale are preparing a list of “recent” varieties not included in Bultitude(1983) but which are likely to be encountered. This list should be available by late August. As soon as I receive it I will let you have copy. I will tabulate the characters of the varieties so that you can easily “slot them in to” the key. Feedback welcome, Tel: 0113 266 3235 (with answer phone), E-mail [email protected] Simon Clark, August 2005 References: Bultitude J. (1983) Apples. Macmillan Press, London Bunyard E.A.

  • Apple Id Rev4
    Historic Apple Identification - the old fashioned way Background Montezuma Orchard Restoration Project (MORP) is currently working on methodology to help guide fruit enthusiasts through the steps of describing an apple to answer “what apple is this”. There are few aspects of apple culture as bedeviling as apple identification. While named varieties of apple trees are clones, and thus, genetically identical to each other, within that variety, the apple itself can attain a wide range of morphology depending upon how and where it is grown. That means two apples could look significantly different but still be the same; or, two apples that look alike are actually different. As MORP Orchardists we have learned from the wise-words of old-timers that the only way to truly get to know an apple is to make a lot of tracks around the tree. That way one becomes familiar with not just the apple itself, but with specific characteristics about the tree such as bark, leaves, and shape. While you are walking around the tree you may even get to visit with someone from whom you can learn. The gold standard in apple identification is to find a person that grew up or grew old with the trees, and ask them to “name that apple”. Repeatedly tasting the fruit, season after season, so that the complexities and subtleties of the flavor, texture, and appearance can be tattooed upon your senses is necessary to build a comparative base of understanding. It is also of great importance to know what varieties were historically grown in your area, as found on old state and county fair lists, and horticultural reports from state journals and newspapers.

  • The Partial Compositional Characteristics of Apple Juice from 175 Apple Varieties Thomas A
    ARTICLE IN PRESS JOURNAL OF FOOD COMPOSITION AND ANALYSIS Journal of Food Composition and Analysis 18 (2005) 213–221 www.elsevier.com/locate/jfca Original Article The partial compositional characteristics of apple juice from 175 apple varieties Thomas A. Eiselea,*, Stephen R. Drakeb a Analytical Services, Tree Top Inc., 111 S. Railroad Avenue, PO Box 248, Selah, WA 98942, USA b Agricultural Research Service, USDA, 1104 N. Western Avenue, Wenatchee, WA 98801, USA Received 14 April 2003; received in revised form 30 October 2003; accepted 6 January 2004 Abstract The partial compositional characteristics were determined for apple juice from 175 non-commercial varieties of apples developed from scion wood collected from approximately 12 countries and several USA geographical areas. Juices from many of the varieties were high in malic acid and potassium. Mean values for many of the attributes did not match existing compositional database value means. However, some of the overall minimum and maximum values for the various attributes (i.e., Brix, pH, ash, TA, sucrose, glucose, fructose, sorbitol, malic, citric, fumaric, sodium, and calcium) in this study compared reasonably well with existing compositional database values. Distribution of phenolics between the various varieties was highly variable with some juices containing little if any phenolic compounds. Chlorogenic acid and phloridzin were detected in all varietal samples while arbutin and HMF were not measurable. The data developed should be useful with other databases in describing authentic apple juice and in the development of future apple commercial varieties to target specific consumer requirements. r 2004 Elsevier Inc.

    Flowering times of apples RHS Pollination Groups To ensure good pollination and therefore a good crop, it is essential to grow two or more different cultivars from the same Flowering Group or adjacent Flowering Groups. Some cultivars are triploid – they have sterile pollen and need two other cultivars for good pollination; therefore, always grow at least two other non- triploid cultivars with each one.
