Apple (Malus) Bountiful M27

A modern classic cooking apple, bred at East Malling Research Station in Kent in the 1960s (a cross of Cox's Orange Pippin and Lane's Prince Albert). Large, pale green fruit develops an attractive orange-red flush as it ripens.

The flesh is sweet, juicy and holds its shape beautifully when cooked — sharper and crisper eaten fresh, mellowing to a dessert-quality sweetness if left in store into the New Year. A reliable, heavy-cropping variety with good disease resistance, particularly to mildew.

A natural spur-bearer with a compact, upright habit, making it a great candidate for container growing. Flowers in mid-season (pollination group 2) and needs a suitable pollinating partner nearby (ideally group 1, 2 or 3). Picked from late September and stores well into winter.

Grown on very dwarfing M27 rootstock, reaching just 1.5–2m in height and spread at maturity — perfect for patios, courtyards, and other compact spaces. Supplied in an 11.5L container, ready to pot on or plant straight into its final position.

A wonderfully productive little tree for anyone short on space but not on appetite for home-grown apples.
