Plant description

A Canadian-bred apple that can be eaten straight from the tree, or used for cooking. Its cream-coloured flesh is crisp, aromatic and delicious - and unlike other apples, it does not turn brown after being cut.

This makes apple Eden ideal for cheese boards, fruit salads, or juicing, and if cooked, it will form a sweet, near-white puree.

The crown of this small tree has been grafted onto the upright stem of the rootstock at a height of 70cm, which will limit the eventual height. Perfect a small garden or growing in a large pot with a loam-based (John Innes) compost.

Pollination information: This apple belongs to pollination group 3, so you will need to plant one other different variety of apple to guarantee cross pollination, and a subsequent bumper crop. Ideally this should come from the same pollination group, however it is possible to use one from group 2 or 4 as well.

How to care for apple Eden ('Sjca38r6a74'):

When planting your apple tree, prepare a hole up to three times the diameter of its root system. Fork over the base of the pit in readiness, incorporating plenty of organic matter into the backfill and planting hole. Place the plant in the planting hole and carefully refill, firming the soil around the roots to eliminate air pockets. Insert stake at this point if required.

Avoiding frozen and waterlogged soil, trees should be planted out as they arrive. Once in the ground, stake firmly and keep the base weed-free. Apply a balanced fertiliser in early spring to support growth and fruiting and provide regular watering during hot, dry spells.

The main winter prune, avoiding frosty conditions, involves removing dead, dying, and diseased wood to create an open crown. Additionally, reduce leaders and laterals by a third to establish an airy structure without crisscrossing branches. In August, summer prune by shortening side shoots longer than 20cm (8”) back to three leaves, promoting fruit ripening and encouraging more fruit buds.

Please note:

This plant is deciduous so it will lose all its leaves in autumn, then fresh new foliage appears again each spring.
