Season records for this tree
2015
Harvest: 3rd week July 1kg / 2lbs
Fireblight: Mild attack
Ripened before I had realized it, so 2 of the year's 3 apples were already slightly over-ripe and mealy by July 23 when I picked them. Third was still crisp. Flavor sweet, mild, slightly aromatic, somewhat insipid.
