Owner's comments

This apple is on my rubinola mother tree, a graft bank with all kinds of apple varieties. Since it is grafted, no fruit or bush form, etc. I wanted this apple because I want to have a taste of this one. We don't have the blue pearmain here in The Netherlands, and because of that, I have to buy and graft in order to have a taste. According to internet sources the blue pearmain is a complex apple. Well I like complex apples.
