Several years back, I collected scion from different sources of Orleans Reinette and King of the Pippins to clear up a dispute, at least in my mind, of several authors. Essentially, some have claimed the two apples are the same.

Many of those trees, growing side by side, fruited this year, and they are definitely 2 different apples. I really like them both, with the King having more "citrus" overtones. But both are great, need to find enough room for all of the trees in the orchard.

One of the favorites for earlier this fall was the diminutive Lamb Abbey. Wow. Sorry, no photos.

Ashmead's Kernal

The winner of countless taste tests in both the UK and US, this heirloom comes from the 1700's in Gloucester, England. Extremely tart, with "gum searing acidity" at picking, it develops a wonderful honeyed sweetness, in addition to its citrus aromatics--orange, guava, even mango. Cider maker Steve Farnum describes it as "a delicious trip to that fine line between pleasure and pain."

Ellison's Orange

Continuing the British invasion, Ellison's Orange is Cox Orange Pippin cross from the early 1900's. The complexity and range of flavors is almost as good as the Cox itself. It can be quite tart at picking, a big plus for some, and is somewhat juicier than the parent.

I'll be at the Fairwood Farmers Market Tuesday, Oct 1 with quite a few apple varieties that are new for this season. The recent cold snap is pushing the apples along, and heightening flavor.

Cox Orange Pippin

One of the finest English apples, Cox Orange pippin is an English seedling (pippin) heirloom, and very tasty. It is chewy, with orange and tropical overtones. It's difficult to grow, but the cool summer this year has, perhaps, allowed one of Lost Valley's best Orange Pippin crops.

I'll be at the Fairwood Market tomorrow, Tuesday. I hope to see you there.

Bramley's Seedling

Bramleys is a heirloom apple from England, and often called England's favorite apple. Fresh picked, it is a tart apple, but it will mellow with storage. It is also an esteemed and favorite cooking apple of England, making one the creamiest sauces, a puree. Fro the English, this puree is the definition of a cooking apple

I will be at the Fairwood Farmers market tomorrow, with Bramleys, Sweet 16, Mollie's, Zestar, Macoun, Summerland Mac and Bartlet Pears among others.
