Tydeman's Late Orange apple
A popular Cox-style apple, with a later season and sharper flavour.
When you have eaten all those other varieties you will still have a treat in store because this apple will keep right through to April. In December it is intensely rich and aromatic and quite sharp. It mellows later and sweetens and loses some of its scented quality but is still very good.
