Cider Apples

The Belle de Boskoop (1856)


I confess that I only planted this apple because it was my German mother's favorite apple as a child.  She said it was the first piece of fruit she tasted after the war and that memory gave her so much pleasure that I thought she should enjoy it again.

It has turned out to be a prolific producer of large, tart, greenish apples that have a nice sweet finish.
