Bramley’s Seedling is the classic English cooking apple, highly prized for its large, sharp-flavoured fruit and fluffy texture when cooked. Known for producing sauces, pies, and baked dishes with a perfect balance of tartness, this late-season variety is typically harvested in October. Being a triploid, Bramley’s Seedling requires two compatible pollination partners from Groups 2-4 to bear fruit, and it cannot pollinate other apple varieties. The tree has good disease resistance, is suitable for gardens of various sizes, and can reach up to 6 meters (20 feet) with a spreading habit. With the RHS Award of Garden Merit, Bramley’s Seedling is a reliable, high-yielding choice for those seeking a traditional cooking apple with exceptional flavour.
