Description
Introduced in Somerset c 1864, by Mr George Cooling of Bath. Pale yellow fruit with red flush, stripes, and numerous red dots. Medium sized, regular, round flat apples - perfect for eating "off the tree" often with pink flesh under the skin. Has a short season but with a wonderful, sweet flavour when just ripe, it is a worthy garden tree.
