GREENSLEEVES APPLE

Greensleeves is an apple of recent breeding in 1966 from the Horticultural Research Institute, East Malling. Greensleves is a cross between James Grieve and Golden Delicious. Pale greenish yellow in colour turning a more golden yellow if left on the tree till October. Makes a first class garden tree for those who like a crisp and tangy flavoured apple. Disease resistant, makes a first class garden tree.

Our Apple Greensleeves bare rooted trees are lifted at the start of the bare root season in November, when the apple trees become dormant, and made available through to March the following year. This period is the ideal time for economical planting. You will however have to wait a year to pick your crop as bare root trees cannot be picked in their first year. For all year round planting why not choose from our selection of container grown apple trees. They do cost more but are older, more established and ready to crop.
