Apple ‘Isaac Newton’

Grow and eat the apple that helped discover gravity! ‘Isaac Newton’ has a historic background, making this variety very special having been propagated from the apple tree whose parentage goes back to Sir Isaac Newton’s garden at Woolsthorpe, Lincolnshire in 1600. Its mid-october ripening fruit are large, greenish-yellow with dull red stripes and are excellent for purées and cooking. In spring, the tree is covered in pink-flushed, white blossom.

Pollination information: This apple belongs to pollination group 3, however it is partially self fertile, so does not need a pollinating partner to produce a crop of apples. For a bumper crop, it can be cross-pollinated with other apples in this group.
