B&Q Lincolnshire Fruits Charles Ross Bareroot Apple Apple 7 Litre Tree
Description
Charles Ross stands as a quintessential apple variety from the late Victorian era in England, often praised for its "handsome" appearance. A product of the union between Cox's Orange Pippin and the venerable English cooking apple, Peasgood Nonsuch, this apple exhibits versatility. Resembling a sizeable Cox's Orange Pippin with its distinct red-orange streaks, it occasionally boasts a more yellowish background.The flesh of Charles Ross is juicy, taking on a light and almost powdery texture as it matures. Its flavor is notably sweet, infused with aromatic qualities reminiscent of Cox's Orange Pippin and a hint of pear. While it can serve as a delightful dessert option, its sharpness in flavor during September mellows into sweetness with time.Beyond being a dessert apple, Charles Ross proves itself as a practical cooking choice. Fresh from the tree, its flesh retains some structure, making it perfect for those who prefer apple pies with substantial, chunky apple pieces. Due to its ample size and juiciness, it also excels as a variety for crafting your own refreshing apple juice.
