Apple Tree Egremont Russet

Egremont Rusett Apple

One of the best known apple trees because the fruit has a very distinctive rich, nutty flavour. Heavy cropping, disease resistant, especially to scab, and partly self fertile so you will get a crop even if it's the only apple in the area

Other notes

A pollinator is required such as a another apple tree or crab apple (anywhere in the district is sufficient, does not have to be in the same garden). Egremont Russet is partly self fertile. It is in pollination group 1, so will pollinate other apples in group 1 or 2
