Thanks for that Jim. I'm going to try the apple bread on the recipe page this weekend.  |

Bramleys are my favourite apple trees. We had one when I was a kid and the stored fruit lasted all winter for pies, puddings and apple sauce, and that was an awful lot of apples!
I hope you have as much pleasure from your new tree as we did from the old one which lasted for 60 years.
If anyone wants a bramley apple but don't have room for a full size tree a bramley seedling is a good option. I've grown a couple of these (we keep moving house) without problem. |

I wanted a Bramley back home, I had a Kronprinz Rudolf and a Schafnase (best after the frost) and an Oderling which didn't produce great fruit but flowered into a blindingly white mushroom, possibly the most gorgeous tree I've ever seen. So I came to Blighty, bought tree, organised transport, got it to Austria and had it refused entry. Not a very cheerful chappie. I managed to get it sent to my Mom's and there it is to this day.
You can't get Bramleys over there for your apple pies, good job I love Apfelstrudel!

Good luck with your Bramley, Hedgehoggy! Let's hope the weather is kind now. | | | |
