Only had the tree a year and a half and already produced its first crop of 30 or so apples. The garden does get some shade in the late afternoon but the tree still grows quite vigourously with the aid of fertilisers. Very suprised how tasty they are. A little under ripe compaired with the best shop ones but I preffer a tarter apple. They realy do burst with flavour when bitten and texture and crispness is top notch. Dispite the use of chemicals there are still a fuew spots on the skins but this does not seem to effect the taste. A fuew got attacked by earwigs but I just cut of the blemishes and uses them in an apple pie, Braeburn does cook well too. Looking forward to next year and hopefully a much bigger crop but I will have to find somewher to plant it as it has compleatly outgrown the largest tub I could find.
