Ellisons Orange Apple

Ellison's Orange is a classic heritage apple variety celebrated for its exceptional flavour profile and historical significance. Originating in Lincolnshire, England, this cultivar has been a favourite among apple enthusiasts for its distinctive taste and charming appearance. The Ellison's Orange apple is medium-sized with a rounded shape and a smooth, golden-yellow skin. What sets it apart is the lovely reddish-orange blush that often covers one side of the fruit. The flesh is aromatic, juicy, and remarkably sweet, offering a delightful balance of honeyed sweetness and a subtle hint of tartness. Its unique flavour, often likened to a blend of pineapple and pear, makes it a sought-after choice for both fresh eating and culinary purposes. This deciduous apple tree is characterized by its vigorous growth habit and attractive, pink-tinged blossoms in the spring. The foliage is deep green, providing a lovely backdrop to the vibrant fruits.
