Red Fleshed Apples - Malus Soulardii
Small red-fleshed apple resembling a crab; larger than John Downie. The flavour is not unduly acidic; less acid than Bramley, not aromatic or complex, and OK as a dessert apple if mixed in a fruit salad with cream or similar. Browns quite quickly on cutting. Ripe at beginning of October. The foliage is attractive; greenish-red, the wood is red-stained throughout, and the blossom is spectacular - bright pink. The second picture shows a normal sized 'Golden Noble' cooking apple for scale.
