CHARLES ROSS DUEL PURPOSE (EATING & COOKING) APPLE TREE-Malus domestica CHARLES ROSS

The Charles Ross Apple tree was originally named Thomas Andrew Knight after the famous pomoligist. The Apple tree received an Award of Merit from the Royal Horticultural Society in 1899 before being renamed Charles Ross which led to the receiving of a First Class Certificate in the same year. The fruits of the Charles Ross Apple tree have a round slightly conical shape coloured orange with a red flush. The creamy white flesh is crisp sweet and lightly aromatic in flavour. To experience the best of the flavours and juiciness of this apple it is best eaten when freshly picked. Popular for using when cooking as it retains its shape. The fruit is ready to pick September - December
