Description

Discovery Apples are an early fruiting dessert apple with bright crimson fruit with possibly streaks of green.  Bite into the creamy flesh of the Discovery apple and enjoy a special but different tasting apple.  Discovery is juicy and crisp with a hint of strawberry sweet flavour which may not be present every year and a bit of tart flavour.  Absolutely a wonderful eating experience!  Added bonus if the crop is large - then Discovery apples make a great juice apple!

Discovery is considered the best apple for areas like Scotland and the north of the United Kingdom.
