Patio Apple Elstar 1 x Tree Late November

Heavy Crops of Crisp, Honeyed Apples Heavy, regular crops of dessert apples Crisp, juicy fruit with a honeyed flavour Ideal for eating fresh or making juice Compact tree for smaller gardens and large pots RHS Recommended: Award of Garden Merit 'Elstar' is a particularly rewarding apple for smaller gardens, producing heavy, regular crops of crisp, juicy fruit. The apples ripen to greenish-yellow with an attractive red flush and have an intense, honeyed flavour balanced by a refreshing touch of acidity. Developed in the Netherlands from a cross between 'Golden Delicious' and 'Ingrid Marie', 'Elstar' has become a popular dessert apple for its excellent flavour and satisfying crisp texture. It's delicious picked for eating fresh and the juicy flesh also makes excellent home-pressed apple juice. Pretty spring blossom appears before the fruits begin to develop, bringing another season of interest and attracting visiting pollinators. 'Elstar' isn't self-fertile, so grow it within pollinating distance of another compatible apple that flowers at around the same time to help those flowers develop into a generous autumn crop. RHS lists it in Pollination Group 3.
