The Gloster apple is a late-season variety prized for its large, deep red fruit with a crisp, juicy texture and a balanced sweet-tart flavour. This variety is perfect for fresh eating, cooking, and storing, as it keeps well for months after harvest. Typically ready for picking in October, Gloster requires a pollination partner from Groups 3-5 and has good disease resistance, making it an excellent choice for gardeners who want a reliable, high-yielding apple tree. Gloster can be managed to a height of up to 4 meters (13 feet) on dwarfing rootstocks, making it adaptable to both small and large garden spaces. Its attractive colour, productivity, and versatility make Gloster a valuable addition to any apple orchard or garden.
