Apple Elstar A superb, late-season dessert apple, Apple Elstar was bred in The Netherlands and is particularly well adapted to the Irish climate. Attractive, medium-sized round fru it, greenish-yellow streaked and blushed with red, with exceptionally juicy, crisp, cream-coloured flesh and an outstanding, honeyed, aromatic flavour. Stores very well – will keep to Christmas and beyond. The tree is on the small side and is trouble-free, although there is some tendency to scab. Apple Elstar has the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit.
