Apple Id

[russell]

Hi All

I was out walking the dog this morning andfound these. Can anyone shine any light on them with regards variety etc etc etc.

All I seem to know is that....

- They are all from three seperate trees

- 'A' has some sort of blemish around the stalk

- 'A' has white spots on the other side similar to Granny Smith Apples


Anyone able to help?

Cheers

I'm no Apple expert, but 'C' could be a Cox's...

You can post them to Brogdales for an id (costs £12 per sample though)
Brogdale Farm - home of the National Fruit Collection - fruit identification

There is no way to be sure, just from the fruit, since there are many thousands of varieties of apple, many of which look slightly different when grown in different locations.
The apples you are showing could be random, self-sown seedlings, or seedling rootstock that sprouted when the top of the tree died.
They may be old, rare or "lost" varieties that people haven't heard of.

If sending a sample for I.D., it is often helpful to include such things as the location of the tree, the size and approximate age of the tree, plus a few pictures of the trees size, growth habit, fruiting habit, bark colour and leaf size/shape/colour.
